I am very interested to hear what awakens your interest and makes you pay attention when you are attending a lecture? Do you think that this is any different than what triggers your students?
Thorough discussion on the topic with some jokes (related to the situation) capture attention from the audiences. What's more, confidence of the speaker also matters a lot in this connection.

The lecture is of interest if the lecturer and listeners speak one language. The large role in perception of a lecture is played by examples from practice and comparison with development of the same problems in other countries.
For me, it's very important that lecture has very strong logic - everything should be well connected, each part dependent on the others (like a gestalt concept). I like to hear examples - but not too many, just a few, as an illustration of the ideas. And, I like that lecturer change my ''horizon of expectations'' - in that case, I could learn something new.
When lecture is through multimethodology approach, use of audio, video, powerpoint, white board, charts, meaningful discussion, and lecture contains only 20-35 minutes.
