 This idea of changing the world might seem like it's really idealistic or lofty But it's not as difficult as people might think. I think it's Important for people to recognize exactly what this looks like. Yep We've been working with our on-campus students on how they can change the world Thomas has a really cool one. Now. He has a part-time job at the university His job is to travel around to high school Students around the state and give them a taste of what it's like to be at university Now after taking think 101. He's realized that he's taught for the last couple of years Hundreds of students Ineffective learning strategies for for how to learn now his change the world project is to convince his boss to Allow him to teach evidence-based learning strategies like we covered in episode five learning to learn To give students a head start in moving towards university. That's right Lincoln is doing a cool project as well on scapegoating now Kind of blaming someone or some group for something that might have happened, but he's actually flipping it on its head He's looking at systems like Climate change or the global financial crisis that don't have Agency they don't have a face right so when you're trying to motivate people to do something about climate change It's hard to do because there's nobody that you can point to nothing that you can actually Direct your attention toward and so he's trying to figure out what you can do to change These agentless systems into something with an agent to motivate change. Yep. Yep. Hannah is is one of my favorite projects I guarantee it will work She works at a pharmacy and they hire a full-time Nashrop path, but she wants to give people her customers the tools to make Evidence-based decisions for themselves So she's come up with an idea to print these business cards that have a whole bunch of websites and tools that we discussed in previous Episodes like the Cochrane library to give people the tools to to take control of their own decisions to look at the evidence For treatments and drugs and decide for themselves. What's going to work? That's right so those are just a couple of examples of things that our students are doing but they're The 200 people in the class are doing some really cool things like creating infographics or launching Facebook or social media campaigns They are writing letters to the editor To magazines figuring out the best way to to fund charitable organizations. That's right petitioning governments Yeah, right they they're writing letters to to newspapers to magazines, right? This is what it looks like. It's not as difficult as it might seem But if again if something sucks if something's broken don't get angry, right figure out what you're going to do about it and What we want the people to do in this class in think 101 is the same thing instead of you know getting angry or Feeling like you have no control Taking a little bit of time and doing a bit of research and figuring out what you're going to do about it and Then sharing that with us. So after the course is finished We have three weeks for people to change the world and then we want them to show us to record a video no longer than three minutes and Share with everybody Exactly what they've done. Yep, and it doesn't need to be elaborate the video could be as simple as taking your iPhone out or smartphone and Looking down the barrel and telling us what you've done over the past three weeks to at least start to move towards changing the world Tell us what you've done. You can sit down in front of a webcam at a computer And there's all sorts of software tools that are available that can assist that so right at the high end you've got things like Adobe Premiere Pro or even iPhoto and right at the low end. You've got a really cool Tool called Adobe Voice. Yeah, Adobe Voice is actually fantastic. It's a matter of Just for the iPad I think at the moment But it's just holding down down a button telling your story. So it's just your voice and then dragging in photos Music and it's it looks amazing and that's exactly what it's designed to do. There are other pieces of software like Screen flow right as we said Premiere Pro things that we use in this course to film our episodes That's the high end, but at the low end. It's just taking out a Smartphone or a laptop and and just sitting down for five minutes and actually just telling us what they're often free programs as well Like Microsoft Movie Maker YouTube capture and is another good one. That's right. So Net once people have done this we want them to actually upload their video so it's a matter of going on to the next section that says upload your video and Click the select video button and point to the file right and upload it. It's that easy We thought very carefully about the channel. That's right Alternatively if they use something like Adobe Voice or YouTube then it's a matter of sharing the link and so we provided a link Spot as well. Yeah, so I think it's going to be pretty fantastic The exciting thing about this is hopefully we're going to have hundreds maybe even Thousands of submissions of people just spending three minutes to tell us to show us how they've they've changed the world And we're going to put all these together we're going to showcase the work that our think 101 students have done and It's gonna be awesome
