In this paper, using the method of moving frames, we generalise some of
Terracini's results on varieties with tangent defect. In particular, we
characterise varieties with higher order osculating defect in terms of
Jacobians of higher fundamental forms and moreover we characterise varieties
with "small" higher fundamental forms as contained in scrolls.
