Ha! I thought this video was brilliant. I don't think that the history of google, amazon, friendster, MSN, and the New York Times accurately sums up what largely exists on the internet today.
I think it was a focused attempt to create a convincing outcome- or future. All in all the video implies that technology is the way of the future. The internet is an integral part of the classroom and of the world. It's often difficult to filter factual information from non-factual information. It connects cultures, people, classrooms, continents, etc... Technology is an amazing tool when used effectively.
It's easy to get caught up on the sensational qualities of the internet and technology, such as shopping, networking, random everything. Yet, when used effectively technology can really connect our worlds.
Did I say, when used effectively yet?
Effectively as a learning tool. Teaching technology as a tool for learning and how to access factual information.

Fox Becomes a Better Person
This video would have to be assessed differently than the last one. It seems like fewer students were involved in the making of this one and it would be difficult to assess the whole class in regards to this video. On the other hand, if there were only a small group of students that made this video, then I could see an assessment looking something like this:
The video showed the students' comprehension of a Tlingit story.
The drawings were appropriate for the story and were parallel with the story line.
The video showed students' understanding of Tlingit culture.
Editing techniques learned in class were used in the making of the video.
Background music is relevant to the subject of the video.

School Train
How would I assess this project?
I would probably focus on the quality of the video- did they use a variety of video making techniques?
Did they edit appropriately?
Did they use all of the techniques learned in class, or atleast most of them to create a visually and auditorally stimulating video?
Did the images correlate with the words flashing?
Did it make sense? (Was the metaphor used appropriately throughout the entire video?)
Did it get the point across?
Was the whole group involved?
Did the background music go with the video?
That's as much as I can think of.
I thought the video was really cool, I was incredibly impressed.
