Did You Know? | Version 3.0
media type="youtube" key="cL9Wu2kWwSY?fs=1" height="385" width="480"

This video was created by educators Karl Fisch and Scott McLeod; who explain their rationale behind creating the video on their wiki site: "Because we are educators in the United States, our experiences and perspectives are going to be somewhat America-centric. However, we believe that the themes of Did You Know? are global in nature and apply to schools and children around the world. We want all children to be successful. We do not view the growing importance of India and China as negative but rather as additional opportunities for everyone in the world. We do not mean to gloss over the very real issues that countries such as India and China face, and we recognize that globalization and "flat world" factors have downsides just like other societal shifts. We prefer, however, to focus on the positive benefits and on doing what we can to help children learn and grow so that they may become successful digital, global citizens."
