change in population versus change in slide. we're up to slide 18 but at least 80 people have now left. He busted out some schematic charts to explain the 3s model and people really flew out.
He is literally still talking about his teaching methodology one hour into the first lecture.

the last slide before I might be force to leave
He is discussing 'My Innovations'. In this list is:
the creation of this subject;
two books; and
the 3s model.
As he was talking these through, he says "I consider myself an innovator. I innovate inside this faculty, I created this course, COMM 327 last year. I should say that it won't be available after 2011."
That might have broken me.

his english isn't great
and that is behind a few excellent phrases so far:
"Student learning: Surface or Deep?"
"Surface learners find learning a pesky activity."
"Student Engagement in the Initial Sense"
And, my favourite so far:
"The 3S Model:
* Signalize human capital
* Show relevance
* Stimulate innovation
"
(He paused to apologise for forgetting to italicise 'show' in the slide.)

the revolving jigsaw
the mixing of metaphors!
"Business innovation involves a jigsaw puzzle because it revolves in 3 dimensions around a few important areas."

I'd rather be writing about the content of this class
but this is still unbelievable! he went down to the podium, people started to quieten down, he bent down and grabbed some keys out of his bag, then walked out of the theatre!
I might use the opportunity to describe the lecturer. I went to his website just now to grab a photo of him because I wanted to describe his ridiculous outfit, but it turns out it's the same one he's wearing in the photo!
This striking shirt is coupled with quite tight navy-blue cargo shorts, and knee-high yellow socks with Dr. Martin flats. Striking.
Hmm, he's still not returned, and we are 3 minutes away from the lecture's 1/4-way mark.
