  • But assignments in Michael Wesch's anthropology classes at Kansas State University have been seen around the world and by as many as 1.5 million other people.
  • The video is up for a YouTube award for most inspirational video of 2007.
  • The other video assignment is more research-based, Wesch said.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • the students' work gets exposure in a way that traditional classroom assignments don't.
  • Bohannon's video skills led to a job with Diigo, an online research tool that's better explained through video than through words. That's why Diigo had Bohannon create a video to explain what it's all about. The video can be viewed at http://www.diigo.com/
  • "That gets at the complexity of today's media environment," Wesch said. "The students don’t advertise. They get the videos out on blogs, people start linking to them, and other people find them."

  • What makes Grand Theft Auto IV so compelling is that, unlike so many video games, it made me reflect on all of the disturbing things I had done.

  • Grand Theft Auto is known less for its game play than for free-form mayhem.
  • The distinction between what you're allowed to do and what you're compelled to do is more meaningful to people who actually play games.

    While most districts are still tackling Web-based collaboration tools from pedagogical and security perspectives, a large number of teachers are already out there using these tools to supplement instruction, engage learners, and encourage their students to become producers of information, as well as consumers of it.
