“A Vision of Students Today” :: It Speaks To Me, Does It Speak To You?

December 26, 2007 by Robert 

Ask my students how often I talk about these things in classes and you’ll understand why the video “College Today” speaks to me. The video has a companion piece, a post called A Vision of Professors Today (by Sandra).

It comes to us via Professor Michael Wesch at Kansas State University. No doubt you’ve seen some of his videos from Digital Ethnography in their Digital Ethnography of YouTube project, mediatedcultures.net @ kansas state university. Great forward thinking ideas from these students and faculty. Check it out, if you haven’t already.

And, I found all of this today because Steven3985 started following me on Twitter. Steven3985 is actually Steven Schafheimer, “Asst. Supt. for Strategic Initiatives at the Brighton Central Schools.” Visit his blog at 2020 Schools, or “What should our schools look like in 2020?.”

    I agree we must adapt to a changing world but some of these educational visions require funding and a reality check.
