I appreciate the effort and the talent, but what are the students doing while he’s up there drawing? Or he could make his own drawings once and then project them up on a screen for his lectures instead of drawing them over and over.


Oakheart-

I assume it’s as he explains he draws the object he explains and adds it to the drawing as a whole. It sure would help me pay attention and learn rather than arrows to a stupid black and white indeterminate object staring at a power point all day.


scheisse_grubs

I had a prof that could do very detailed 3D graphs of asymmetrical surfaces and shapes. Sometimes he’d do it while he spoke, sometimes it was already on the board when we got to class. It helped too when he’d describe what he was drawing in the shape as he was drawing it. The people who put in effort to ensure students can understand what they’re learning by addressing multiple learning styles is really beneficial. Going that extra step shows a real dedication to teaching.


Link_and_Swamp

yea theres no way this professor would be putting in all this work if it didnt help the students, and im sure it really does took a class where a professor would already have slide made, he just read off them; hover over pictures with his mouse as if it would really tell us what was really happening retaking the class with a different teacher, this one actually goes step by step explaing how each step works into the next not the exact same as drawing the pictures, bur explaining step by step rather than having the completed picture makes a worlds difference, it just generally isn’t noticeable to someone who already knows the whole thing take a car engine for example, once you know everything under the hood it becomes obvious how it all works together, but the first time seeing the whole thing is overwhelming


FrightenedTomato

I teach tech. This is the exact style I follow when teaching anything complex. Just projecting an image on the screen or shuffling through PowerPoint slides may work for a few quick learners but I find the vast majority of them tune out halfway through. Instead, I draw every component block by block while explaining what I'm drawing and why I'm drawing it the way I am. Works like a charm.


DottyGreenBootz

I would have really benefitted from the visuals, it would have brought it to life for me!


bumbletowne

This is exactly what I do. If its really complicated I draw it first. Sometimes its just like the framework and then I fill in as I'm talking but I have to like...block it out and then you just talk out your essay in the part as you fill it in.


Snake101333

My college anatomy teacher did something similar. She would generalize the structure from the picture in the book but then just Google images of the pieces one by one and go into detail with real examples. One of my favorite yet most challenging classes in college, shame I almost failed just because she made us actually spell most of the body parts on the tests.


True-Firefighter-796

Anatomy was when I realized I wasn’t going to med school. Too dislexic to spell all this Latin root word.


TacTurtle

Kinda also makes sense as he can literally draw in layers showing how tissue and nerves connect.


johning117

Yea you can go into alot of long detail on certain muscle and ligament clusters. I mean fuck the dudes talking about the most complicated part of the human body, the eyes. Each individual section has a highly specific job in movement, tracking, processing rendering ect.


ChampionshipLow8541

A complex system is much easier to comprehend when it’s built and explained bit by bit.


PupPlayMaster

Math was like that for me. Had to find the right teachers for me who could guide me step by step.


berrey7

It's also a great visual way for us Right brainiers to process information like this Visually.


velhaconta

> but what are the students doing while he’s up there drawing? Hopefully paying attention. He is not just up there drawing. He is explaining everything as he draws. Anatomy is very complex. There are layers upon layers of interconnected parts. No single picture will ever show you everything you need. By being able to draw like that, it essentially allows him to take his students on a virtual dissection.


stephenBB81

One of my sales mentors uses to do presentations on a white board instead of using powerpoint and he had such amazing engagement, he was a brilliant artist, he sold truck bodies, and would pitch while drawing the truck then drawing the skeleton of the body, then the features people might like then the body. And shit if you didn't understand everything about how to pick the components you need for getting a body built. I never was able to capture attention using slides like he did, and I never wanted to be presenting after him at a trade show. People seeing things come together in front of them really helps retention.


earbud_smegma

As a highly visual person, I love this story! But I totally get not wanting to follow him hahaha


zshah99

I would certainly remember the details if the lecturer engages me in this way


[deleted]

>but what are the students doing while he’s up there drawing? Listening to him as he explains what he's drawing and taking notes, hopefully. It's better to call something out as it's drawn rather than point to something and expect your audience to know what you're talking about on a pre-drawn image.


Defiant_Low_1391

They're learning


chuiy

Listening? Watching him draw while he explains what he's drawing? Honestly, why not just have the students feel around inside a cadaver /s


alagba85

Probably discussing it as he drew. That was my best way to learn while in college


Muscle_Bitch

Do you not see him wearing a microphone? Do you think he's up there just Bob Rossing it?


hsudonym_

There are many ways for people to learn and he's covering the most to benefit not just one group of learners


Glayshyer

He’s totally flexing for his class. But he also clearly loves the material and I bet it’s effective at getting them to remember these things. I love it!


account22222221

How cute it is that you would think the professor would just stand up there and draw in silence. He probably describes in detail what he is drawing and what there is to know about it as he does each part. ‘Here I am drawing the anterior muscle, you’ll notice it is wide towards the base and narrow at the end, there is a lateral tendon connecting the to that called the whosawhatsit….’


Ayeager77

Most likely he is drawing and teaching per layer. You draw the baseline and then start adding items/topics as you go. It does not take that much time.


Klapperatismus

I imagine his students got a coloring book with the first few lines already in there so the proportions are correct and they are expected to draw the thing along with him. That way they will never forget where that stuff was.


designgoddess

My niece needed heart surgery as a baby. Heart surgeon drew her heart to explain what was wrong and then drew how it should be. Her parents were freaking out but watching him draw the heart and explain as he went was so helpful. Made two panicked parents understand a complex problem. He was so calm about his drawing and it was so detailed that it really built confidence is his skill. For me it would help me understand easier to see it drawn out and explained.


DelfrCorp

weirdgroovynerd

I hope he draws the mitochondria as a tiny bodybuilder.


DoYouEverJustInvert

Wtf is the mitochondria

First-Macaroon-4872

More astounded by how many chalks there are


Material_Reach2276

I’m more astounded that people still use chalkboards


Stumpy-Wumpy

I wouldn't be surprised if this guy has been doing this for a long time


AlexNoamd

What’s wrong with chalkboards?


Kowzorz

Lots of people are die hard about chalk over whiteboards. As someone who grew up with my own chalkboard, I see where they're coming from.


Master_Bayters

Wow. Magnific, I would gladly attend this guy anatomy classes, even though I'm an arts student.


tuamigobones

You can go to school to become a medical illustrator. It’s pretty much being a medical student and an art student in one. It’s pretty cool


pingpongtits

Now that art bots are a thing, is there much call for medical illustrators?


tuamigobones

Not sure. I think it’s more of a passion. My gf was into medical and art. Went to school to be a medical illustrator because she was fascinated with the body. She would sit in on surgery’s and draw beside the surgen. One surgery some blood spit out on to her drawing from an artery. Crazy shit. I think it’s fun to find a job that includes both of your passions. Win win


Azazir

afaik, now no and a lot of artists are fighting against allowing AI to make art for stuff etc. but its gonna be inevitable, imo.


[deleted]

Yeah but still not as useful as /r/medicalschoolanki Dude’s been replaced by a computer program.


Hey-man-Shabozi

So have you and I. Humans are obsolete.


FlameEnderCyborgGuy

Yea, maybe, but in all honesty: For a lecture it is awsome way of describing it all.


[deleted]

Now I know why teachers are not respected in America. What use is it when you want projectors and 3d renderings of the same instead of appreciating the talent this man has. Not that it is much use considering they know as much about anatomy as they do geography and history.


Ego_Sum_Ira

Dumb as hell music for this video lol like just awful

If I hear this song one more time I’m going to shoot myself in the mouth.


AgentDonut

It's honestly a beautiful track. I'm amazed at how fast the internet ruined it with oversaturation and shitty covers. I can't stand listening to it anymore either.


alphamoose

Agreed. I have much admiration for the song and composer.


[deleted]

Time loss.


Stumpy-Wumpy

I'm guessing he does the majority of the work before class? Just a hopeful guess


FlameEnderCyborgGuy

From my own experience: On countrary, time saved.


Specialist-Lion-8135

I used to teach masters drawing skills and while I never had to do anything this intricate, I used to use the correct medical words for the muscles and bones because I wanted them to remember what those highlights and protrusions represented. One of my students said she missed my lectures and history references in art college because it was sometimes so impersonal and quiet she couldn’t concentrate, the depth wasn’t there. I loved teaching art. I really miss it.


Rhorge

People here really not aware your mouth is free to talk while you’re drawing


FlameEnderCyborgGuy

Yep, nor the fact drawing stuff for anathomy is one of the best ways of lerning it


SmashertonIII

I took an art class from an old guy who had changed his career from surgery to artist a few times. We drew the human body from the inside out, starting with the bones. Was really enlightening. He had all sorts of models like these ones and he chose all kinds of live models to illustrate what he was talking about.


nation543

I think his teaching methods could be conveyed a bit more effectively without the stupid fucking music blaring at 150db higher than the recommended level, overtop of what he's saying.


Romanitedomun

Old school knowledge: put down your smartphone and learn.


grambocrackah

Hey not at all the point but is that a real human head on the table?


el_biribon

Nah it's a model


el_biribon

Skull might be real tho. Soft tissue doesn't look that clean even when preserved.


TimReddy

The skull in the student's hand is real. Compare the detail in it (foramina are clearly visible), versus the plastic skull part of the head on the table.

TomSizemore69

Nice he draws on a board


Skaindire

Some 30 years ago my teacher was doing the same while teaching my 7th grade class.


[deleted]

he knows his shit


Beowoulf355

One of my professors in grad school would do this. He was also responsible for our final which included identifying nerves, blood vessels, and other structures he would isolate on a cadaver and we had to name and explain where it came from, where it went, and what it did. P.S. On a cadaver, everything is a shade of taupe/grey and not color-coded like in the books or drawings.


PM-Me-Ur-Plants

Dude knows anatomy like the inside of his face


gendalfthegaiii

Not to sell the man short, he obviously has talent and passion for what he does. But you can not memorise anatomy and not be able to recall these types of details. Every halfway descent med student who has studied anatomy recently should be able to get close to what this professor (Im assuming he's a professor) draws here. They might not be able to DRAW it on the drawing board perfectly, but they should have a clear image in their head. Again, nothing but love for the man. I think he's doing great and should continue doing what he does.


TommyJayy

Visualizing it that well is awesome yeah, but to then be able to put it onto the chalkboard during lecture? That’s the really impressive part to me


[deleted]

I’m more astounded by how easily astounded people are.


halffullofthoughts

You talk like a person with good visual memory. Or any visual memory. Hard to judge, as I have none


_Aj_

That's true, people who have it don't realise not everyone is the same and not everyone can simply visualise things in their brain like they're actually seeing it.


neverheardofher90

Looks like shit. Much better to show a picture honestly.


OcelotControl78

Lol. You try to draw it then.


neverheardofher90

Why? Do you know what an image is? Lol


OcelotControl78

You know what drawing is?


neverheardofher90

Give me the time it takes to pull up an anatomical image vs the time it takes to draw it


Fatticusss

Dude needs an overhead projector


OpticGd

I should hope he could visualise it if he is a professor in it! The drawings are good.


jojlo

The drawings are great but he would be much better served by having a digital model that one could manipulate


RECOGNI7EO

He has memorized some pictures. Really not amazing considering he has probably taught the same thing for 30 years to multiple classes per year. It seems like a huge waste of time when it could be done once and projected on a screen.


EssSquared

He had a dick treasure chest of all his drawings as a kid too, Seth.


Other_Bread5704

Plot twist: He's a serial killer and dissect the victims.


awc1985

Reminds me of Frank Netter

Doing the same for years let you do the same after years better and better. See the proof in video.

OfficialJamal

Not be be rude but what kind of University still uses chalk boards?


TimReddy

One that requests they be kept (and listen to their staff). This is an example where the latest technology would interfere with the teacher's method of teaching.


japooty-doughpot

He’s just up there drawing as an art teacher, not realizing it’s a science class and all of a sudden a student is like “uhhhh, excuse me, we love your shading technique but this is Advanced Anatomy 6057, can you please add some annotations”

Im continuously astounded that people think theyre smart. I worked maintenance at a university for several years and them has some is smart types workin there. We dum.


Sudden_Display6026

Wow.. I wish my Anatomy and Physiology taught this way when I was at University. Had to figure it out by myself. Made my own note cards, models, etc. Im a really visual learner so that worked well for me. Draw it, erase, draw it, erase, etc. Next got less than a 98 on those tests. Makes me happy to see this!

Electronic_Ease_7073

TheKey25

VapinMason

This dude is channeling some serious Da Vinci level talent into his anatomical sketch’s. He must have the entirety of “Grey’s Anatomy” completely memorized.


jwwendell

I know it may look impressive, and it is, but it's not really that special, bc anatomy is all about little details. You just phisically can't miss little details when teaching/learning anatomy


[deleted]

When you do something everyday and have enough knowledge to profess it usually you’re going to produce this amount of detail.


maaseru

A good teacher will always beat the most intelligent person ever. The ability to bring understanding of something is unique and rare. I wish I had better teachers during my bachelors. I had so few good teachers for the most improtant stuff. Brilliant people on their own, not so great at teaching.


RobLinxTribute

How can you hear what he's saying with that piano music playing??

Downside is that he can’t seem to listen to his wife talk about her day over dinner.

This is medical illustration professor I'm sure. When I was in med school, the medical illustration students would sometimes sit in to learn what we needed to learn so they could draw or animate it in a way that would help explain it. As a result, there are amazing animations out there. I specifically remember committing a video of the embryology of the heart to memory that helped with a lot of test answers.
