I was first introduced to Michael Wesch’s video in a professional development meeting for Literacy Coaches working in low performing inner city high schools. I admit I am intrigued with the ideas in the video and plan on sharing it with my colleagues, but I also noticed the lack of people of color in the video, and that it was aimed more at college students than high school students. I would be interested to see the statistics for a school with a more racially balanced student body. Rather than reusing Professor Wesch’s students, have you considered conducting your own survey and making a video of the findings? Most of the students featured in the Kansas State video are unlike the students in my school, and I would like to see the same types of questions addressed to a more similar group.

Thanks,
Greg
