Not Your Father's Book - Very Clever Video ...

on the future of publishing. I do think publishing will be transformed in the next few years, taking particular advantage of a new class of devices (iPad, Slate, etc) and the possibilities of digital media/content. I also think we underestimate our kids and our students - many of us are still living and working in an analog world and expect our students and kids to do likewise. This video is a perfect example of what kids can do when we empower them and let them loose in the digital world. This doesn't mean we abandon our old-world analog skills - students will still need to be conversant and capable in this world as well. The future is going to reward those (students and faculty) who can straddle both worlds.
