A couple of days ago I pointed people interested in Citizen Media to a Dr. Michael Wesch video, now here is another for anyone who wants to see the future of education. Find out why in a class of 200 students half say they hate going to college, but all love to learn and then how to fix it so they love to learn in classes.
If you have an hour, take the time to watch Presentation: A Portal to Media Literacy. It is the future.
As you might know, the Harnisch Foundation under the direction of Ruth Ann Harnisch gave us a substantial gift to start the Center for for Sustainable Journalism at Kennesaw State University. We are up and running. Keep abreast of what is happening at SustainableJournalism.org

Thanks, Len. That’s an amazing presentation and it came as I was trying to get my head around a new class I start teaching next week. Suddenly I have a whole bunch more options, and I feels like I’ve been given “permission” to cut loose.
