Dec 31, 2011 - Our species is learning an entirely new form of communication that is not only going to transform society, it already has transformed us on a fundamental level. Notice the transparency we share today versus just one decade ago, and how this kind of transparency is a good kind of transparency. One that serves the commons now, and is about to change the world. For 5,000 years, we've existed in a city state culture, and we're about to graduate to whatever is coming next:)

Sep 27, 2011 - Harnessing collective BS! Why couldn't educators put together a great suggested reading list decades ago before there were cheap computers. So now more people produce more junk to wade thru. I never heard of this in high school: The Tyranny of Words (1938) by Stuart Chase watch=M9H1StY1nU8

Jun 19, 2011 - Wikipedia is fantastic, don't get me wrong, but it isn't knowledge. Its information. There is a difference between the acquisition of knowledge and the availability of information.

Apr 28, 2011 - Yes it is true... We do not need all these Universities. Think of the Tax dollars Americans can save if they went online only..

Apr 16, 2011 - For America to stay competitive in the 21st century as a global superpower, we need to a complete change of our education system! And we NEED it now! It's sad our government spends more on defense than education, education is only approximately 4% of our total budget (somewhere around there, just read it the other day.) The key to our future is our children obviously, and not investing it them is detrimental to our country, our world! Wish I could take his class...

Mar 10, 2011 - We must protect the electronic system with a Faraday cage.. A faraday cage will protect electronics and electrical machines from sun spots, radiation and other things that can wipe out all electrical systems. Just some food for though.
samason6 Says:
Mar 6, 2011 - I wonder how student affairs would fit into this video . . . Theorists keep saying that student's need to be engaged and develop holistically, yet even technologically is divided, though portals such as blackboard or even facebook are making attempts. If student affairs personnel are to continue to be employed, how do you see technology integrating ALL of university life?
roidroid Says:
Feb 24, 2011 - The ethical validity of IP laws is questionable. Most kids have no respect for IP, but they don't have lobby groups. If only they did. Universities are centers of progress in many fields, but ARE held back by law. Whether this is justified or not - the reality is that it weakens the university's ability to be a valid universal information gatekeeper and educator, which is why it's worth mentioning in the context of this video "rethinking education".

Feb 24, 2011 - It looks like they were coming from - do a Google Search on "IT Conversations" (youtube not letting me insert links) and you can scroll through the video to get an idea who is being heard from. I agree, it would be nice to have a set of links (probably as a delicious site?)
stevestoneky Says:
Feb 24, 2011 - Breaking intellectual property (this is the IP you were referring to, right) laws is illegal no matter who is doing it. Just because a student can do it, and doesn't apparently get caught, doesn't mean that it is right. I agree that higher education is not keeping up with modern information technology, but I think downloading copyrighted material without permission is not one of the first things we need to get them to start doing. Let's go to open source textbooks, etc.
