Re: repetitive. ANC is a communications prof so maybe he'll stumble onto this post.
Years ago it was thought by some that lectures were best absorbed by the speaker repeating the same thing 3 or 4 times. The idea was that the slower boys and girls would get it.
However, some studies showed the opposite to be true. When the speaker is in the habit of overly repeating the listeners learn that they don't have to pay attention. Each concept is coming around again...and again.
OTOH, when the speaker is quick, concise and only says things once the listeners quickly learn to focus like a laser on each sentence and thus learn content more accurately.
