Collective intelligence in action.

  1. Each student will outline a single lecture--noting its key points. See below for lecture assignments. You may confer with other group members about the points. Email that to me, jbutler@ua.edu .
  2. The group as a whole will create a 90-second video lecture. No longer!
    • Choose three essential points from the lecture.
    • Briefly explain each in 30 seconds or less.
    • One group member may be your lecturer or you may spread the points among several students.
    • Find a quiet spot to record your lecture.
    • Either email it to me (jbutler@ua.edu); or put it in UA Box; or post it on YouTube/Vimeo/etc. If online somewhere, email me the link. Remember: these videos will be made public.
    • The best 90-second video will earn its group members 5 bonus points on the final exam.
