The reason I love this type of learning is because it's said that our minds process speech many times faster than the speed at which most professors speak when teaching. Therefore, it's easier for students to lose their attention span. But this is fast and attention grabbing, yet we can still pause and puzzle over concepts if the need be =) Not to mention how it targets both the visual and auditory learning styles, making the learning process that much easier.

Thanks for putting this together. I am thinking about using it as part of an online interdisciplinary studies course.
