Many people need to hear and see at the same time in order to learn. In one of her first videos, she mentions that she wants the students to write down what she says so that they can transfer the information to long-term storage. Powerpoint lectures have the disadvantage of being fast. The lecturer just flips through slides and students sit passively. Diamond studied the brain for goodness sake! She lectures at the speed of your processing and these videos allow you to review.

I don't know about you, but I have had some awful college professors. In comparison I think she does a phenomenal job at introducing complex structures to individuals who are learning it for the first time. Additionally, I agree that such questions are great for learning, and if you listen to her lectures she does utilize such methods, but that method isn’t really practical for an hour in an auditorium full of students.

this professor is indeed a teacher by nature and knows her way about things,sadly some only want to find negatives about everything clearly showing lack of self interest .this video's are helpfull 2 students like myself who study in foreing languages who needs confident ,well experienced references from such professor's.

Yes! exactly - good point. What this lecturer is doing is providing what a text book does - a recitation of facts. There is very little experience presented (in my opinion). What would experience look like? "Ok class, today we a 55 yr old diabetic man that presents with a 3 hr history of left sided weakness. Last night you read in your texts about the descending motor pathways. Now I want you do figure our where the lesion could be." Let's think!
