The following link is to a TeacherTube video that I found to be the most interesting for educational purposes.

This video highlights important statistics surrounding current, American education. It draws attention to the static classroom and tries to shed light on the idea that teachers need to "Shake it Up" to rejuvinate the system.
I thought this was especially fitting for this course. It introduces the use of multimedia in the classroom as a means of preparing students for the world and careers around them. Students should not be confined to lectures and textbooks, but instead they should be introduced to collaboration, multimedia, and inventive ways of presentation of material. This video had upbeat music to keep the audience entertained and effectively used text to grab the audiences attention.
Members of this class should take a look at it, if only to reinforce what we are learning about multimedia use in the classrom currently.
