I found this lecture interesting in terms of facts and the vast variety of artists but I believe the way in which the lecture was performed was not very creative, therefore lost alot of student's attention very quickly. Whilst I took lots of notes and digest the information I found myself thinking about other things and doodling. I don't think this is a bad thing as I am constantly being inspired and in that lecture aswell as getting all the context of drawing I found myself walking away with ideas in which i could perform a lecture to make it visually stimulating and include the audience. Videos, pictures and constant audience interaction I believe would engage art students maybe more than reading as I enjoy and find most effective 'hands on' learning and getting involved.
