I once met a literature instructor whose teaching method is similar to your music professor. He asked us to read a passage and then asked us the feelings we were aroused by it. I think this is a teaching method only suitable for art appreciation. Art arouse our senses and subconscious thoughts and feelings. When we hear a piece of music or read a piece of literature, we can empathize with it. This kind of teaching method can well mobilize our artistic perception and improve the ability of divergent thinking. However, this kind of method is not suitable for some objective and rational subjects, such as mathematics or physics. Of course, I’m not saying that there is no artistry in science, but in teaching, these subjects are more suitable for the direct input of knowledge and pay more attention to problem-solving ability.
