Historical perspective on the 21st century learner, started with the old classroom and moved into today. Showed her daughter multitasking. **Karen and Jennie** -21st century learner -Karen = digital immigrant, kids play video games and carry their systems with them all the time -Jennie = in between generations, dislikes lectures, prefers hands on -Hard to hear at parts - common problem, must be aware of this when assigning it to students, Bruce mentioned that audacity could be used to fix the sound. **Jesse and Allsion** -Really loved the comic life intro of bored kids -Explained lots of messages on collaboration **Alex, Daljit and Andrea** -Sound is a little off but good ideas, i liked the music that it was exciting and original
 * Helen**

**Dane and Matt** -Use of different movie clips, made it fun with the references. -Differentiated instruction

**Taylor, Natasha and Kristen** -Comparing times between ours and our grandparents. **Alex and Brad** -Focus on cellphones and their use **Stephanie, Pat and Lily** -lots of fun about content filtering and copyrights at the end. Went together rather well, the quality of Movie Maker is quite good considering it's a free program. **Sejal and Lisa** -Campasia turned out to be more trouble than it was worth we were told and reverted back to using Movie Maker. **Graham and Steve** -Garage band, still photos, flute and violin -No speaking was really cool and powerful, great tool!

The presentations were lots of fun and it was interesting to see all the different perspectives everyone chose to present on. I was very impressed by how we all learned to use so many different types of media together, I can't wait to bring that to the classroom!

__Digital Portfolios __

This was a great way to end the class, we discussed having an actual CD or DVD to give prospective employers rather than lugging around our whole binders though it would be great to use both together and leave the disk behind. Even if they don't look at it it shows that we are tech savvy and what principal doesn't want that? Bruce told us to include these things:

a. resume b. philosophy of education c. references d. images of teaching, with an explanation of what they are looking at e. scanned or photographed student work f. anything else that shows you in a positive light
