Sesame Street & visual thinking

6 March 2008

a Sesame Street clip from 1971, in which a large-nosed man in a business suit tries to teach a younger, more casually dressed man about visualizing geometric shapes. the younger man has no trouble with the shapes, but does get carried away easily...

watch 2 more Sesame Street clips after the break.

I can't help be reminded of the characters from the Mac vs. PC ads by Apple when I watch the first one of those though.

Ill surely have my toddler watch the videos on your site! :) Sesame street every day here!

For all you lawyers out there, I'm sad to say that the older guy reminded me of (mostof )the law students I have taught.
