Academia 2.0? The reponse to A Vision of Students Today
Walter Stier posted a link to an interesting video made by a Kansas State cultural anthropology class on what it's like to be a college student today. In case you missed the "response" video from the same creators, it's here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=vZ1jFaXgTnw.
The first video caught my interest but it's really just the setup for the real message in the response. Lot's of hugely interesting, thought provoking content in this 9+ minute clip.
My favorite quote? "Information is not scarce."
Check it out.
