The video was very true, I agreed with the point that they made. Class are a 20th century environment with 21st century technology. This is a problem, because this is not preparing us for the world that we will be living in when we graduate from high school. I thought that the way that they presented the information was interesting. I liked how also that talk about what is missing from just a simple black board that could be replaced simply by a smart board or a project with a smart touch projection board. I like the movement of the camera it was engaging and definitely helped with the presentations of the information. But I feel to that a technical critique they could have used more wide angle shots for more of a dramatic telling, or a long shot from the end showing the entire class to have more of an impact.
I think that the intent and meaning behind the video is that we need to modernise the classroom. But there is no easy way to do that. We would need to train teachers to use this new technology and allow them to understand how this can help in the class room. I feel that it is being implemented at high levels such as high schools and some collages, but not in middle schools or elementary schools. I think that overall the video was good, and effective at getting its point across technically not the best but still good.
Ben,
ReplyDeleteYou need to start with an effective topic sentence-you are not following format of this writing: a summary paragraph and a response paragraph. Summary needs to be 100% objective. What did Wesch and his students day about 21rst century learning and the implication of technology with it? I need you to show depth of thinking in response paragraph. There are so many different directions you could go. You spent a lot of time showing what you liked about the style of the video, but not really showing a lot of your own commentary. Pay attention to spelling, but you need to adhere to proper structure. We are working on fundamentals here, so I am looking for growth every week. I know you are better than what you are showing. 8/20
