  Assistant history professor Matthew Bellamy (left) and criminologist Darryl Davies (right) are in the top 10 for TVO's Big Ideas Best Lecturer Competition.
  ...
  Historian Matthew Bellamy and criminologist Darryl Davies have been chosen as finalists in TVO's Big Ideas Best Lecturer Competition by students who nominated their favourite instructors.
  ...
  But for Bellamy and Davies it isn't about the fame or the money - it's all about engaging students in the learning process.
  ...
  "He has a knack for the simple things," adds Christopher Mines, a political science major who has taken two classes with Bellamy.
  ...
  Meanwhile, Bellamy says the biggest reward is when students' eyes light up when they understand what they are being taught and are engaged.
  
  "Any teacher realizes the immediate gratification that comes with doing the job right," he says.

  Mr. Bellamy is more low-key. He was nominated by students in his first-year survey course on Canadian history, particularly for a lecture on one of his favourite subjects, Canada's brewing industry.
  
  He's a researcher as well as teacher. An article that traces the brewing industry's attempts to put the brakes on prohibition is to appear in the March-April edition of a history periodical, The Beaver.
  
  "This man brings history back from the dead!" a nominator said.
  
  "I think of every time I go into the classroom as a performance," says Mr. Bellamy, who was hired by Carleton in 2001 as a sessional lecturer, then moved a step up the ladder to instructor, finally getting hired as an assistant professor this year. "I don't use a lot of Powerpoints or that kind of thing. I just go in there and talk."
  
  Mr. Bellamy says he doesn't pretend to know the secret to being a good lecturer, although he plans the framework of each lecture around three important questions and 10 new words or terms he wants students to understand. Then he wraps in colourful personalities of the time period. All the pieces "dovetail back in," he says.
  ...
  Mr. Bellamy's "A Watershed Moment: Canada and the Second World War" will air Feb. 28 at 4 p.m.

  Dr. Matthew J. Bellamy is an assistant professor of history at Carleton where he has received a number of teaching and book awards. He specializes in Canadian business history and government-business relations. In 2005, Maclean's magazine named him as one of Carleton's most popular professors. And in 2007, he was the recipient of the Capital Educators' Award.
  
  He is the author of Profiting the Crown: Canada's Polymer Corporation, 1942-1990 and Canada and the Cost of World War II: The International Operations of Canada's Department of Finance, 1939-1947 (with R. B. Bryce). The former book was the recipient of the 2005 National Business Book Award.
  
  His latest research has taken him into the realm of brewing history. Bellamy contends that perhaps no industry is more revealing about Canadian culture, history and attitudes. He is particularly interested in how the Canadian brewing industry responded to the threat and onset of Prohibition at the beginning of the 20th century.

  Update: Professor Matt Bellamy has made it into the top 10 of TVO's 2009 Best Ideas Best Lecturer Competition. You can view the video of his top 10 contribution and read our continuing coverage here.
  
  I really feel for those poor souls who can go through a Carleton University education without the opportunity to sit in on one of Matthew Bellamy's lectures. Gracious, gregarious, and always engaging, Bellamy approaches each lecture in a way that brings Canadian history to life. His academic works are award winning, as his personal care for each student's success while upholding rigorous academic standards is unparalleled.
  
  He is running in the Best Lecturer TVO competition, of which you can watch and rate his clip here. I am grateful to have the opportunity to vote for him and I invite you to do the same.
