A Vision of Students Today


a short video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today – how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime. Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.

  6. @stenwu this was 5 years ago new candy-ass
    such cancer never existed back then lol XD

  7. Knowledge is power

  8. It’s more visible than ever before, that everything in this world is shaken in all aspects of our world and daily life: In society, politics, economy, religion, nature, education, moral.
    You can watch wherever you want…
    We have to saddened wordly, to be consoled from heaven; to prepare our hearts for the coming lord and saviour jesus christ, who is the living god.
    When everything is broken down in your life, don’t forget, that HE is still there!

  9. They forget 9gaging !

  10. I think I see the point but in reality, if you want to get more out of it, don’t bring your damn laptop to class… why so complicated? It’s a privilege to be able to attend University, I felt that privilege every time I sat in a lecture or lab. Grow up a bit maybe?

  11. Student + Dying = Studying

  12. Check out our Services and Save lots of Money on Textbooks

  13. @sgsilver as you notices this video was rcd in a particular location which if you research doesn’t have a massive ethic diversification … has nothing to do with they weren’t invited.. it’s like going to Taco Bell and asking why they don’t serve pizza…

  14. @jumb0mumb0 TRUE… it is also because we allowed ourselves to be sucked into the hyper of an over structured educational system at the most pivotal moments of our lives (in general – I discount those who bust their asses to get sh|t done.) SCHOOL is what you make of it… for sure!!!

  15. THIS is why I am an information/instructional technologist that specializes in sustainability in education… I am apart of the change that will help improve the debit-heavy constrains of the old teaching ideologies of education….

  16. Again still one of my favorite Videos!
    God Bless

    Students can’t be spoon fed everything as you’re suggesting. Most universities do encourage creative thinking. It’s not the school, it’s what you make of it. Schools can only do so much. The root of the problem is *most* Americans are lazy fucking shit bags.

  18. @saladfingers2057 Thanks for your reply. If that is the case, then I wonder why there appeared to be no students of color in the video.

  19. @sgsilver I go to K-State. Yes, the campus is very diverse with a large number of foreign exchange students from Asia.

  20. I think that its sad that people pay for class but sometimes never come, or sit through class on a social network site the whole time and don’t pay attention to what the professor is teaching.

  21. 7 hours of sleep? I wish. I average 5. Though that might just be because I’m a 3rd year engineering student…

  22. It, the stuff is boring. I hate One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, and my Spanish class is an easy A, but you don’t see me not doing the assignments!

  23. What are students doing face booking in class? I get

  24. Interesting concept. But are there no students of color at that university?

  25. As much as i thoroughly agree that the way academia is sucks, as it does utterly,. I too study anthropology. May I ask you though, what are you doing ‘facebooking’ through your classes? get a grip. how spoiled or arrogant can you be not to even try to listen because you deem somehting too boring for you, to do something you recognize as time-wasting instead. boohoo
