Having seen Dr. Zhao in person I am a true believer and wish politicians would spend time learning his perspectives. He may not have all the correct answers but he is challenging the way people need to think about education...it is time for a "revolution" not reform!
The power of videos:
2011 remake of video from Prof Wesh seen in class
ENGAGE me
Digital learners must have technology in their education
BECAUSE
technology is the world WE live in!
Found a great link for more documents by Prof Michael Wesh and his cultural anthropologist students
(It is awesome to see the connections to the education system and culture through anthropology)
Video, Me & Education
My first iMovie (did in class under 20 min)
This is so simple, quick & easy!! iMovie & QuickTime are true must for all educators tool bag...
My mind is running wild with so many ways to help staff & students...
- Celebrate successes
- Document how to do assignment
- How to use program
- Advocate for specific interests, people, needs ect
- Jazz up staff meetings, lesson plans, trainings
- endless opportunities???
Great video--esp the last frame! Nice! Glad you found the Wesch website. He's one of those unique educators who really gets it. I love all his stuff. Cool that he's a cultural anthropologist.
ReplyDeleteI, too, find my mind bubbling with ideas of how to incorporate ideas from this class into my practice...and it's only been 2 days!! I'm interested in learning more about Yong Zhao...and the links you provided will help me do just that! Thanks!
