I know there are Picasso sketches at the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid. But I've never visited the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, so don't take this as ultimate data.
Wow! There are so many holes in this guy's ideas. I love the way he opens by talking about artists and how teachers are artists too. Only to ramble on about applying his MBA knowledge of data to what constitutes best practice in teaching. Maybe some genius will realize what great artists do could also be analyzed and improved through the use of data collection of their actions too! This is a businessman reducing teachers and learners to data points, except his book isn't even really based on data, it just comes from his own personal observations of a handful of teachers. Not only are half of the ideas he "discovered" nothing new and he would be aware of them if he had actually researched the field of education, but many of the ideas he propagates are a sad regression to antiquated ideas which treat living humans as empty vessels to be filled and shaped by their superiors. How are people taking this seriously? Or should we all just forget history and the field of pedagogy altogether and patiently wait for this messiah to find all the answers himself through data collection?
I'm sure you didn't even completely read his book, not even half of it. You don't have to reinvent the wheel, you have to put as much knowledge as you can together and apply it. Reading his book alone won't help you in every aspect related to teaching but it sure covers a lot of very useful techniques you could but don't have to apply.
Exactly (1:02) -teachers must be dedicated to being lifelong learners ourselves.
I wish the film would have shown the pictures and graphics on the screen rather than just constant close-up of Mr. Lemov.
All of the clips are on the DVD that comes with the 2.0 book. Best teaching book EVER!!!!!
I live in Florence Italy and would love to have Doug Lemon here. How much would that cost?

Who is the lady he started taking about?
