Networked Society

As winter break approaches and we enter a shortened day schedule I wanted to show a movie to my students. Something that would get them thinking about what we discuss in class.  Something that was school appropriate and related to the subject.  Sure I could show them how netflix streams a movie but what would they really learn.   I found this video about a networked society.  Awesome!  Networked Society shows how we as a society are connected and how we can use these broadband internet connections to better our lives. I am anticipating some strong class discussion afterwards and hopefully see and hear some really great ideas how we can make some of this stuff work.  I am also hoping one of my students will go to botanicalls and try this really cool system out.
