Here's another YouTube group video contest. This one is for high school students and deals with health and world view. The rules/guidelines might be helpful in developing your own video contest or class assignment.

This video is of Michael Wesch talking to the Library of Congress is a must see for educators. Whe you have 55 minutes, you should watch it. It's worth your time, I promise. Wesch also spoke at the CHAT festival in Chapel Hill earlier this year that Newman and I attended. He hit on some of the same points, but this talk below is quite extradordinary. It is an expansion of his short video by the same name.

More ideas for using a Flip cam (Pocket Video Camera) in your class

Ok, this has gotten me motivate to try out my flip video this weekend....the potential use is great,...plan is I am going to try using it to highlight a new piece of technology that we just purchased called the sonic care, I have used this device, which is like an ultrasound machine to a vein on a person that was next to impossible to start.

This is great news. Good luck! I'm interested to find out how you edit the movie files. I've yet to find a good solution - the .mp4 files require file conversion to get into my editing software. If you have iMovie, it's not a problem ... I think. Let us know how it turns out!

Free Medical Videos

Skitch is a Mac only screenshot caputure. It does not do video, like Jing. But the interface seems very nice. Take a peek.

A vision of students today

Digital natives as learners:"Engage them, don't enrage them". This is a video (7:52) that explains some of the issues related to 'Digital Native' students in a non-digital school structure.

Interesting video on today's learners versus standard teaching methods. Well referenced and entertaining. Daivd Warlick is quoted a couple of times

"The goal of providing the handheld device, the school said in a statement, was to improve the learning experience and give students flexible access to health care--related content. The combination media player-camera-video recorder-personal digital assistant with WiFi capabilities was loaded with mobile applications students will need in the classroom as well as an app to help them prepare for the nursing board examination."

What sort of apps would you add to a mobile device for students entering the nursing profession?

I ran across this beautifully done video story today, and thought it might be a good resource for community health. I could see it as an intro to a discussion board prompt, e.g. Is a clinic like this ethical?

This short video demonstrates some possible directions E-books may take.

This video explores the potential for using wikis as a qualitative research methodology.

A good video demonstration of VoiceThread

After looking at voice thread I started thinking of ways in which I could utilize this technology in teaching my undergraduate students and it dawned on me that I could post a picture of the Amish and ask my students to share comments about the amish culture which would be useful in facilitating optimal outcomes with clients.

And in teaching nurse practitioners, I could post a picture of a patient and tell the story then ask students to identify a possible differential with rational. With 6 students in a clinical, 6 possible differentials could be generated from viewing a picture of the client and listening to the story in context.
