Scroll down until you get to the video on education. View this 4.44 minute You Tube video. It does take a few minutes to load. Then write a paragraph in this blog about the impact of this message on future teachers.
Then scroll down to view some of the i-movies on poems that the students have created. Consider how you might create an assignment in which, instead on the same old boring class discussion on a poem, students, working in small groups, might create their own i-movie (of under 2 minutes) to share their interpretation with the class. Then write a paragraph in this blog suggesting a specific poem for which this assignment might work.
