Warren sent me a link to this important video posted by new media guru Dr. Michael Wesch.
Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology and Digital Ethnography
2008 U.S. Professor of the Year
Kansas State University
Click PLAY or watch it on YouTube.
If you like that, check out his famous 55min presentation called An anthropological introduction to YouTube. Brilliant.
his blog – Digital Ethnography

Wesch, like Stanley, feels that educators should embrace new technology, not fight it.
Exactly the opposite of that hippie school, Waldorf.
Readin’, Ritin’ and Rithmatic curriculum is a losing battle.
