Free Hugs: Today Only

After watching Dr. Michael Wesch’s video (again), it was obvious that I need to draw my inspiration from the usual source, my students.  So tonight in class, I am showing the video and providing this response prompt:

QUESTION 1

  1. Please give me one adjective to describe how you feel about . . .

    The near future, a time and place of:

    •Ubiquitous computing
    •Ubiquitous communication
    •Ubiquitous information
    •At unlimited speed
    •About everything
    •Everywhere
    •All the time
    •From anywhere
    •On all kinds of devices

QUESTION 2

Please tell me, in one sentence,

How your voice will be heard in this “conversation”

when it is ridiculously easy to:

•Connect
•Organize
•Share
•Collect
•Collaborate
•Publish
•Inform
•Persuade

QUESTION 3

  1. In One Paragraph, please tell me

    Why you are here in programming class,

    and how this learning will help you:

    •Find meaning
    •Think critically
    •Find your identity
    •Go beyond critical thinking

I will post an update with the results shortly.

 

Obviously, my words are inspired by the ideas presented in the Dr. Wesch’s video, which you can find on YouTube here:
