ResearchChannel
August 10, 2008 · Posted in Digital Resources, Teaching Resources
Thanks to a link from Deanya, I’ve discovered ResearchChannel, “a consortium of leading research and academic institutions to share the valuable work of their researchers with the public.” Essentially, it’s a educational video library.
Browsing the Arts and Humanities and Computer Science and Engineering sections of the site, I’ve come across a number of things I want to return to as possible teaching resources or just for fun. These include:
- How Does Technology Transform Thinking?
- Is Science Fiction Science?
- Letter Perfect: The Marvelous History of Our Alphabet From A to Z
- Old Media and New
- Anansi Boys and Mirrormask
- A Conversation with bell hooks
- Browsing Around a Digital Library
- Computational History in Action: Discovering Gutenberg
- Computational History in Action: Gutenberg’s Printing Process
- Computer Graphics: Communications Media
- Future Hype: The Myths of Technology Change
- Interactive Visual Media
- The Meaning of the 21st Century: A Blueprint for Ensuring Our Future
- The Perfect Thing: How the iPod Shuffles Commerce, Culture, and Coolness
I need to watch “How Does Technology Transform Thinking?”, the two “Computational History in Action” videos, “Future Hype,” and “The Perfect Thing” to see if I want to include them next semester.

Twitter Feed- Four separate sets of plans canceled on me this weekend. With few friends in this state, that's an epic failure.
- One class down and one to go.
