  • This dude is living the teaching...

  • with teachers like this, a man with no knowledge in science could understand basic chemical concepts

  • my head huuurts >.<

  • Wow, I thought I wrote fast!

  • great professor,,,,incredible

  • great professor,,

  • can i kiss him !! :P

  • why does no one ask questions or talk? :O

  • They still use blackboards?

  • @orgminyak i love blackboards ...

  • I wish all of my teachers were like him

  • Really amazing way of teaching! I think he should be given a medal.

  • I really like how he writes with the chalk.

  • This science never give any help for natural scientist with great discovery and never expected this science in labs. Atom reaction in open place is never in this science for all questions in one point with live testing power answer in simple.  Take help from this human society and help them.

  • What the fuck, I thought the air was pure oxygen and I'm almost 60!

  • @toncookie337 hey, better now than later! The first time my mom learned what outer space was, was in 2003, when I explained it to her.

  • lol who's craig?

  • @spontaneoussam2 cameraman i think

  • This professor is very articulate.  Great job!

  • is this a first or second year course?

  • Incredible he perfectly simplifies the processes of matter states and makes it understandable to the common man I wish my professors care that much.

  • excellent lecture

  • Great Lecturer

  • Combines content with nice explanations! tks MIT (From Brazil)

  • Good, 110%.

  • Lec 33 | MIT 3.091 Introduction to Solid State Chemistry The lecturer is very impressive. He is very clear and concise. He explains everything in the fullest. He assumes your education level as very low and takes he will take your understanding to a high level with the littlest of effort. He does not bend the laws of science to make it easier to teach.

    I shoed this lecture to my parents and they were able to understand what he was going on about.

    This man is an ultimate teacher.

  • Wow...I wish some of my professors were as clear and concise as this guy.

    It is the worst possible thing when you get the sense that your professor just doesn't give a shit, and is just teaching to make sure he doesn't lose his research salary.

  • Good chem teacher ... but who has 50 chalkboards in his/her classroom

    Wish mine made could teach that well.

  • even though it is frustrating, it is one of the trade-offs you must face when going to a major university. If you want a teacher who is solely focused on teaching you concepts, you ought to go to a community college, because the sole job of a community college teacher is to teach. The teaching position of a university professor is rather perfunctory to his primary role, which is to disseminate new knowledge.

    Again, if this is really bothering you, you ought to be at a community college.

  • amazing prof, wish my chem prof was just as good. boo u of t =(

  • did u start at the end? if ur after bcc fcc etc look around lecture 20 ish..

  • He gets on to that after about 10 minutes of basic physical chemistry.

  • I used to study theoretical physics, in Helsinki. Looks very much the same :)?

    Now I have changed to work efficiency optimizing of individuals and systems, so if you need some rest or more nice things to your life, please visit my channel, maybe read my free book Work Efficiency and Likings?

    Merry Christmas to you!

  • That car analogy is great ive been reading physics of nascar and it expalined that same thing so it was easy to understand the concept

  • Why the hell is MIT still using chalk boards? I know it's a stupid question, but you would think they'd have money to start using dry erase :-).

  • why does it concern you?

  • It was just an observation.

  • There are many good reasons not to use dry erase:

    1. It's a large lecture hall -- to produce thick lines that you can see far away, you'll need *really* thick markers -- they will be *really* smelly and run out *really* quickly.

    2. Whiteboards don't have a very long life -- they get scratched up, and then it's impossible to clean them up.

    3. Color markers are hard to see, and some colors leave marks that are hard to erase.

    4. Noxious fumes from markers are much worse for you than chalk dust.

  • I'm sure the teachers can't stand using chalk though. The markers glide and the chalk, well... doesn't. I guess it's all about preference though. I think a black dry erase would be pretty visible. I mean, you have a white/black contrast on a chalkboard. You would just get the reverse on a whiteboard. I don't think the teachers at my college thought the fumes were too overwhelming or killed too many brain cells :-).

  • As far as I can remember, Sadoway was quite fond of chalk. And good chalk glides just fine -- look at how easily Sadoway does it. By the way, they use sidewalk chalk, which is huge and has a very comfortable grip.

    On a regular whiteboard in a regular classroom, you can use a regular marker, and then the fumes won't be so bad. In an *auditorium*, which is where Sadoway is teaching, the markers would have to be *huge* (and I've never even seen whiteboard markers that large), and they would stink.

  • This is cool

  • extraordinary teacher, I wish I could be there in person!

  • This man is crazy!!! is the best one xD
