I believe this video really shows society what reality is really like in the present and what it may possible become in the future. This is probably one of the only videos that have really waken me up and realized what the world is really like compared to 20 years ago.<BR/><BR/>What really gave me the patience to watch this were the clashing of the music choice and the way the slides were made. You come up with a good point asking all these questions and it really makes people think. <BR/><BR/>Good Job<BR/><BR/>-TylerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15650481.post-80053608914912450012007-08-10T12:45:00.000-05:002007-08-10T12:45:00.000-05:00Dave:I would love to explore how a project I am wo...Dave:<BR/>I would love to explore how a project I am working on might relate to this piece.

Too long? Too short? Loved/hated the music...it's really all about the discussion we need to have about today's P-20 (preschool through higher education) public education system. I'm a member of the school board where Karl works (only a wee bit of pressure here). The world needs the discussion about where do we go from here and then, the really challenging part of what stays, what goes and how do we support it. Huge questions. Thanks again for moving the discussion forward.Renee Howellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13813098198387246353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15650481.post-5772205867515392862007-07-05T09:11:00.000-05:002007-07-05T09:11:00.000-05:00The day before this post was made I heard a great ...The day before this post was made I heard a great story on NPR about a MacArthur Foundation granted school dedicated to Video Game Design and the nature of "Dynamic Systems"<BR/><BR/>You can listen to it here: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=11259040<BR/><BR/>This caused me to think about the concept of what sorts of tools would be in a New Education toolbox. I came up with PhotoShop as the New Pencil, and 3d Modeling as the New Physics, of course site Forums, Message Boards, and Comment systems as the New Classroom. <BR/><BR/>Yet it's more than just a transfer from hard copy to digital, there is also the underlying perception from the concrete to the mallable. You aren't wedded to a final design in Photoshop as you are in some drawing...you can also change the physical environment in the modeling app. <BR/><BR/>Still though, your animation is a great way to light some fires under some chairs and hopefully precipitate change.platts42https://www.blogger.com/profile/08086882674873049929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15650481.post-161998191965914602007-07-05T07:02:00.000-05:002007-07-05T07:02:00.000-05:00I don't believe it's a cultural problem.

I am in the VERY early stages of designing some kind of "future of education" summit to be held here in Oklahoma. Target Audience: Educators and some legislators with an interest in education.<BR/><BR/>If you have any ideas on how to make such conference a hit, I would welcome them.<BR/><BR/>I found some variations of the "Did You Know" show on Utube, but none with the aesthetics of this one!

I was just thinking about the statistical numbers on MySpace.com and its rising social influence on today's generation -- it's 8th position in global population (participation) is staggering. I recently signed up with MySpace, being naive and curious at the same time, and quickly received three unsolicited requests for some casual "friendship" (which I deleted... got little creeped out). So if relationships can be easily established and sexual promiscuity a reality in today's world, could MySpace possibly contribute to real population growth?

Teachers and other parents at my kid's school roll their eyes at me when I start talking about what our kids SHOULD be doing...and it makes me sad. Not that I take it personally, but that there is so much resistance to change. "We survived a crappy public educational system and so our kids will too"...again it makes me sad.<BR/>Keep creating these.

To me the most startling was the language numbers.<BR/><BR/>As interesting as it was, I felt that some portions were not directly related to the end point being made.

I think it does a great job at making important statistics easy to understand and process. The simplicity is great. The music works well too, appealing to one's pathos. <BR/><BR/>I think the content is also important. America has arguably the best colleges, research, and education, and visual institutions in the world. Yet our society is continually focuses on ourselves as the center of everything. We live in an ethnocentric society and because we live in this way we have trouble understanding and perhaps more importantly <I> caring </I> and looking for ways to collaborate with other people in other countries. <BR/><BR/>Put this in an increasingly globalized context, and I see that we only find ourselves at odds against the future...<BR/><BR/>I hope I will be able to contribute to 21st century education in some way. How do you see yourself play this part?<BR/><BR/>Continue the great work, and maybe I can learn something more/collaborate with you one day.<BR/><BR/>Jonathan<BR/>www.flickr.com/photos/jmwarez<BR/>jonathan.muehlke@gmail.comJonathan Muehlkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03237463196051849193noreply@blogger.com
