 How do I engage with a generation of learners that have so many powerful media tools at their disposal that take so much attention away from the classroom? Video game law at the Allerge School of Law did start out as a conventional law course based on a book in a closed space with the only students in it and the only people who saw it being those who registered. Going open, having a website, when lecture capture came along, incorporating lecture capture in a big way struck me as a way of grabbing the students' attention. The largest part of my career and certainly the beginnings of my legal career and practice, I was a Freedom of Expression lawyer. So even then for me it was all about openness, access to information and being able to express information freely. The fears around how students will react to open or being asked to do things in the open at least in my experience is vastly overblown. The zeitgeist of students is to be in a world of open posting and so having an open course, having a WordPress website allows for that lasting value and it doesn't turn the virtues of learning into something that is cloistered, that is circumscribed, that is narrow. Still sometimes the open tools we have are too vertically inclined. They're about professor-student interactions and we need to create a much better layer of student-to-student communications in the context of a course website. Sharing is education. The whole notion of teachers and students is predicated on the notion that there is knowledge to be shared. So anything that constrains the sharing of knowledge is not a good thing for education and arguably is not a good thing for humanity.
