Rip Van Winkle Goes to School: the Movie

with one commentPrint This Post Print This Post

Mathew Needleman has done a nice turn to visual learners and 21st c. education evangelists by giving us a movie version of the old “If Rip Van Winkle woke up today and went to school, he’d feel right at home” meme.

It’s nice to see high production and design values in another educator-created movie - one to add to the ranks along with Education for Well-Being’s Bill Farren. (Mathew shares the software he used to make the movie on his Creating Lifelong Learners blog - thanks, Mathew, for sharing what you learn.)
