A publiclecture is one means employed for educating the public in the science s and medicine . The Royal Institution has a long history of publiclecture s and demonstrations given by prominent experts in the field. In the 19th century, the popularity of the public lectures given by Sir Humphry Davy at the Royal Institution was so great that the volume of carriage traffic in Albemarle Street caused it to become the first one way street in London . The Royal Institution s Christmas Lectures for young people are nowadays also shown on television . Alexander von Humboldt delivered a series of public lectures at the University of Berlin in the winter of 1827 1828, that formed the basis for his later work Kosmos . Besides public lectures, public autopsies have been important in promoting knowledge of medicine. The public autopsy of Dr. Johann Spurzheim Johann Gaspar Spurzheim , advocate of phrenology , was conducted after his death, and his brain, skull, and heart were removed, preserved in jars of alcohol, and put on display to the public. Public autoposies have sometimes verged on entertainment United States American showman P. T. Barnum held a public autopsy of Joice Heth after her death. Heth was a woman whom Barnum had been featuring as being over 160 years old. Barnum charged 50 cents admission. The autopsy demonstrated that she had in fact been between 76 and 80 years old.

Image 5th Floor Lecture Hall.jpg thumb A lecture hall at Baruch College , New York City , USA Image Paris sorbonne colloque prog.jpg thumb Lecture hall at the University of Paris , France A lecture hall or lecture theatre is a large room used for Education instruction , typically at a college or university . Unlike a traditional classroom with a capacity from one to four dozen, the capacity of lecture halls is typically measured in the hundreds. Lecture halls almost always have a pitched floor , so that those in the rear are sat higher than those at the front, allowing them to see the lecturer. The importance of lecture halls is so significant that some schools of architecture have offered courses exclusively centered on their design. The noted Boston architect Earl Flansburgh wrote numerous articles focusing on achieving efficacious lecture hall design. Lecture halls differ from standard classrooms in that they allow for little versatility in use. ref http www.crlt.umich.edu learningspaceguidelines largelecture.php ref Experimentation, group work, and other contemporary educational methods are not practicable in a lecture hall. On the other hand, lecture halls are excellent for focusing the attention of a large group on a single point, either an instructor or an audio visual presentation, and modern lecture halls often feature audio visual equipment. A microphone and loudspeaker s are common to help the lecturer be heard, and projection screens may be used for large displays.
