Don:
Thanks for the link to your paper - interesting analysis.
Wanted to correct your perception that my comments were an indication that I felt video is over-hyped. Video is becoming huge and its use very diverse. If anything we're under-hyping videos potential.
I was particularly struck by a comment Michael Strangelove left me saying he's eliminated ALL written (paper-based) assignments from his many courses and now requires all students to make a research-based video and write a blog. Read that again - eliminated all written paper based assignments! Video and blogging are new forms of academic expression and assessment.

Hi Paul,
Very encouraging to hear about the increased use of video/blogging for expression and assessment of students. We have the technology to allow for expanded forms, getting educators to use them is the next step. Thanks for your comments. Pheo :)
