Wow. THAT’s how you teach stuff!

Some professor from Kansas University has prepared a lecture-like construct that frankly blew my socks off. 4:31 minute of didactic genius.
If (when!) we pick up ed-me again, this is going to be my idolized example: THATS how lectures should be.
It’s just 4:31 minutes of your time, I promise you’ll be hooked, and it explains what web2.0 is. Most of my audience probably already knows, but it’s still a brilliant presentation.

Content-free.

Hardly. There’s a boatload of meta-content in there. If you want details, it’s much, much more conducive to start looking for things yourself instead of listening to someone lay it down. With this you know where to look. Besides, one of the primary tenets of proper didactic teaching is that learning is much easier if you know the basic idea.
Most lectures are fuck that up; they just sort of dive in without much context.
