80+ Videos for Tech & Media Literacy

Alec Couros, a pro­fes­sor of edu­ca­tion­al tech­nol­o­gy and media at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Regi­na, spends his days (among oth­er things) help­ing new teach­ers become tech­no­log­i­cal­ly and media lit­er­ate. And he runs a well-estab­lished blog — Open Think­ing — that helps teach­ers stay ahead of the tech­nol­o­gy curve. Last week, he pulled togeth­er a very handy col­lec­tion of videos that touch on tech­nol­o­gy and media lit­er­a­cy. Most of the videos are infor­ma­tive. Some are down­right enter­tain­ing. Either way, it’s a col­lec­tion well worth perus­ing. Last­ly, I should say that Alec is one of the more dynam­ic Twit­ter­ers that I’ve come across. So give him a fol­low, and you can also find us on Twit­ter here (and Face­book as well).

For those in the US, have a good Memo­r­i­al Day. For all oth­ers, have a good day, and I’ll see you tomor­row.
