A Vision of Students Today

| 0 Comments

I have been sick for the last week, and when you're sick, blogging slides by the wayside (everything else, unfortunately, does not.)

Anyway, I saw a video today that inspired me to brush aside my malaise and pick up blogging again!

Michael Wesch's new piece (you may remember his amazing Web 2.0 video, The Machine is Us/ing Us from last year) is inspiring...and depressing...and ultimately enlightening. I like how Wesch always ties together the use of the very oldest technologies with the newest ones (his reference at the end to the blackboard as a classroom innovation).

Anyway, the video, Enjoy:
