On this Youtube video — A Vision of Students Today* — you find a very interesting view of how students view their own characteristics: “…how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime”.
Take five minutes and watch this video.
I am going to show this to my students at the beginning of a course next spring semester, discuss perspectives and expectations, and then ask them to write a reflective paper at the end of the course.
Faculty 2.0 (mentioned in an earlier entry) suggests that student may be way ahead faculty what regards use of technology.
