Wesch's fantastic presentation on emerging (mostly web collaboration) technologies in the undergraduate classroom. Short of a huge educational system revamp, Wesch's style of educaiton seems to engage students, provide a world service, and is properly Piaget friendly. Nuts to A/V inclusion of non-KSU-students in the course, though? It seems trivial for professors to do this at this stage of technological advancement (MIT's OpenCourseWare is a good example). What's really blocking us from providing all students (/humans) with a more efficient, inclusive, and immersive educaiton?

Dubbed “the explainer” by popular geek publication Wired because of his viral YouTube video that summarizes Web 2.0 in under five minutes, cultural anthropologist Michael Wesch brought his Web 2.0 wisdom to the University of Manitoba on June 17 (see video above).

During his presentation, the Kansas State University professor breaks down his attempts to integrate Facebook, Netvibes, Diigo, Google Apps, Jott, Twitter, and other emerging technologies to create an education portal of the future.

“It’s basically an ongoing experiment to create a portal for me and my students to work online,” he explains. “We tried every social media application you can think of. Some worked, some didn’t.”
