Hobnob with MSU faculty

by | Monday, April 06, 2009

Paul Morsink & Bakar Razali, two graduate students in our college have been doing this interesting variant of the 60 second lecture. They record short videos of individual faculty members talking about anything that interests them and through that allow viewers to learn more about faculty members at MSU’s College of Education. The results of their efforts are now available for all to see (yours truly is represented there as well, as is Matt Koehler). Their goal is to have a video for each and every faculty member in the college – they have around 23 so far. Check out the hobnob video project.
