I appreciated that the professor was humorous and approachable but knew what he was talking about. I usually felt like he was just talking to one or two students in a conversation when he was lecturing in a grand hall. Teachers who make their students feel that way get more buy-in, recollection, engagement, and critical thinking from their students I think.Sushan wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 00:18(Location 185 of Kindle version)He was a man who would often go off on a tangent, speaking enthusiastically about a subject we had no idea we were meant to be discussing.

Prof. Leyton Buzzard was quite enthusiastic about discussing apparently ordinary events in a detailed and a logical manner to open the minds of his students to new possibilities and theories. What do you think about his teaching style and teachings? What is your overall opinion about him?

Yes. The author found a good way to convey the necessary physics lessons to the reader without making it feel like foreign stuff or damaging the flow of the story. This professor reminds me a typical physics professor who is extremely immensed in the subject

It was quite interesting how Professor Buzzard got the students involved in the lessons. He really got them thinking through relevant questions. The students related their experiences and he was able to get them involved in the class that way. He was an important part of the whole development of each worldline. Interesting character!!Sushan wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 00:18(Location 185 of Kindle version)He was a man who would often go off on a tangent, speaking enthusiastically about a subject we had no idea we were meant to be discussing.

Yes. He is the typical professor who is immersed in the subject matter and think about the ordinary things in ways that no ordinary man would think. He analyses the situations in a perfect manner (which actually is the ability of the author) and convinces the audience about his theories.

Professor Buzzard is alive in all the worldlines. He definitely got the students thinking scientifically. I mean just look at how the students added to the conversation. Professor Buzzard is an interesting character. He helped his students many times. Remember the scenario surrounding the placebo. I think he is portrayed as eccentric but a positive person. He showed how scientist derive there theories from everyday life. I think that this is an excellent point that he made in Worldlines.Sushan wrote: ↑01 Jul 2021, 00:18(Location 185 of Kindle version)He was a man who would often go off on a tangent, speaking enthusiastically about a subject we had no idea we were meant to be discussing.

I agree he brought some humor to the Worldlines. I thought that Professor Buzzard's character really helped to spice the book up a bit. I think most persons are able to identify someone who reminds them of Professor Buzzard. Brilliant!!!

Indeed. I really like his teaching style. Inviting and encouraging his student to be as open minded as possible. He has a great teaching personality
