There is a lot of good work but some of the data seems extra such as e^− j2πn = 1 which can be said is true only when n is an integer and not any real number. In the example it would be good to mention the sifting property for the integral of a delta. I like how the reasoning is explained for the work and why the idft is used unlike the dft.

Really great explanation. I like how you showed the common mistake that student make with continuous signals. The slecture could be improved with some graphical examples. I disagree and think showing e^− j2πn = 1 is helpful. It will always be true in this case since we are working in discrete time. If you didn't realize this the simplification of the sum could be confusing.
