Think before you post?


Here's an excellent 60 second video originally posted at Teachertube. I think that it really does illustrate both the importance of thinking before you put anything up onto the Internet (image, text, video) for viewing aswell as underscoring the relative lack of control that we have over things once they have gone online.

In its own way this video presents an interesting contradiction; it proposes a very ‘Americanized’ impression of education whilst making a universally relevant point. So whilst this video presents a completely foreign experience of education to the one that Indulkana students experience - it does so in a way that expresses a truth that applies to all users of the Internet.
