Education 2.0

[shortistephi]

required is the multimedia to be installed into class rooms. If the board of education will just be more relaxed about teachers teaching methods our kids will learn better.

I have this idea for a business that would help students. To make a youth staffing place so they can better their resumes and get better starter jobs or entry level jobs where there is availibility to move up. This will help many students and the ecomony.

I am a college student and part time worker.I think a cheaper solution to benefit education is to better the teaching methods. It doesn't all have to be technology. If it just wasn't all lectures, but to include interaction with each other and the topic of the class. Examples: group discussions (also breaks tensions in class for more participation), multimedia materials (slides,videos, real life examples), or personal connections to topic. There is no business for this and the only finance

I work as support for higher education, so I'm not able to dive into details but, higher education needs to move from theory to practical application. We need to move away from the concept of knowledge for knowledge's sake. Instead of teaching a Journalist advanced Algebra, throw that journalist into a head long intense program that will get them to be the best in that field, that will make them create and develop something new and different. A program that will push the limits of their mind.

The verb "throw" is NOT spelled "through".

Dude, stop that typewriter sound for the love of god....

Interesting video. I think you waaaay overused the typing sound. It makes the video VERY hard to sit through.

Also why not have the background music play throughout. I understand it shows the juxtaposition, but it would add to continuity and engagement.

It had a good point, but the presentation was to slow.

Please let us know in what ways you think that technology can help students in ways that it is not doing so already.
