critique on "Human Emotion lecture" Psh156: lect2

The lecture was about the Human emotion, and the professor taught about the introduction of emotion. According to the lecture, professor gave a lot of examples like stories, situation and explain them all. After explaining, professor connected examples to the definition. When the professor gave the example, he showed the video with the faces of students showing what is emotion on their face. The professor always ask question and wait for response. The interaction between professor and students were very often. As the question, he explained depth and details. In fact, he guided what would next and what would be very important. Moreover, the professor acted physically on his face to show each physically movement for each definition. I've never been in Vietnamese university before. Therefore, I just can image that the professor and students are not very interacted to each other because vietnamese students are very shy in the lecture hall. The vietnamese professor required the respect of listening and not often asking. I think that the methods use with power point, video are the same . I found the easiest to understand is the emotional expression because he told the story and acted many action to describe the way emotion express like huge, smile... The most difficult to understand is about the comparision psychologial theory within the other experts. That made me confused, and I got lost a bit at that point. However, I could catch the next step when he gave the example about Edwin's definition. I think this lecture is very helpful for me to have the basic idea about the social behavoir which I need to research for my project.
