Tarsier eyes: Thanks for your engaging Paideia workshop on Sunday on "Video Production from Scratch for Beginners" at Reed, "On Music in Film - Ken Burns," Cuttyhunk film, a) Reed College Hum 110 lectures, primarily for the Internet, and b) recording, for instruction, Reed's guidelines for faculty on teaching via the conference method in Hum 110 sections


Dear Ty (and Eliot),

Thanks for your engaging Paideia workshop on Sunday on "Video Production from Scratch for Beginners" at Reed, and for this video we made:


Student Film: Saving the World one PAPER TOWEL at a Time

Here's the Ken Burns' Youtube on music you mentioned being interested in ...

"On Music in Film - Ken Burns"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN2xMd21K_4

... (which you'll find here too -
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2014/07/cuttyhunk-bayberry-ive-made-at-least.html
... and here is my film idea for this summer or in the next few years -
http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2014/07/seals-cuttyhunk-island-in-1970s.html
- which I also mentioned to you).


Thinking broadly and hypothetically and in terms of Reed-related instructional videos, would you be up for

a)
recording a full year of Reed College Hum 110 lectures, primarily for the Internet, and from which World University and School could grow teaching Hum 101 (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Humanities) using the conference method online
(http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Conference_Method_of_Teaching_and_Learning) - eventually to translate into large languages and in many nation states.

b)
recording, for instruction, Reed's guidelines for faculty on teaching via the conference method in Hum 110 sections, but directed at graduate student instructors teaching online (ideally MIT, Yale, Harvard, Stanford and other students at great universities, and even Reed College juniors and seniors) who might then teach via this at The College at WUaS -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School#World_University_and_School_Links
- in WUaS's Hum 101 and in other courses including STEM (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/STEM_Education_-_Science,_Technologies,_Engineering_and_Mathematics) subjects?

Guidelines for instructors on teaching via the conference method onlie would potentially help graduate instructors around the world learn this approach to teaching and learning, too.


Per your workshop, I've added this blog entry to the "Film Making" wiki subject/school at WUaS ...  http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Film_Making. What would you suggest adding here?


Thanks again for a great, practical and multi-faceted film-making demonstration/instruction on Sunday.

I enjoyed both your (http://tymarbut.com/) and Eliot's acting, as well as the conversation.

Best,
Scott
