The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Students

Thanks to my wonderful sophomore students, I had an opportunity to present, discuss, and solicit feedback regarding my take on Nicholas Carr's book, The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains, a Finalist for the 2011 Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction. Because in the future I am only allotted 50 minutes to present and respond to questions, I've taken my students' feedback and eliminated about 1/3 of the slides. Below appears the unabridged slide deck, including the 2 videos I played when I presented. Enjoy.

Code of Best Practices in Fair Use

Just released. I will comment further once I've digested this document from the Center for Social Media of American University and the Media Education Lab of Temple University.

UPDATE: Here is an edited version of a presentation I gave at the NICE (Northern Illinois Computing Educators) Conference in February, 2009. More recently, I have presented this material at the IETC (Illinois Education and Technology Conference) in November, 2009, and at both ICE (Illinois Computing Educators) and CUE (Computer-Using Educators) conferences in February and March, 2010, respectively.
