    By the way, the 'Arm Yourself' and a few other slides are created for laser-pointer feedback from the audience.

    Wow! Thank you so much for all the great comments and feedback. I really believe that humor brings people together and, as Melanie noted, a lot of folks in academia are quite distraught about how technology is changing what we do and how we do it. This talk was meant to start conversations. I’m glad to see it’s working.

    Eat your heart out Larry Lessig! In addition to unpacking a provocative topic (scary scary for many academics!) with insight, humour and heart, Robbins does so in a lively animated format that takes slide-sharing to a whole nother level. This is some phat loot for those of us looking to level up in the big battle that is technology adoption in education (and elsewhere - just change the titles and this would apply in any field). One of my favourite slides is near the end. It’s about reconciliation and 'taking off armour' ... this battle isn’t about winners and losers. This is a battle that can result in a PAX Romana - if only we know how to approach it. To extend the battle references further, take the young and wrathful Achilles. He’s ready for battle - and nothing but. Problem is, he lacks the foresight to consider what is honorable and decent and needed in post-war society. He drags Hectors body around, refuses a proper burial and acts like a general ass. Until, that is, he gets enlightened. Those of us who wish to rush into battle seeking only to settle the score, will not foster the conditions needed to inspire real harmony between old and useful knowledge/history/expertise and new ways of doing things. We must have the readiness and ferocity of an Achilles, but the ripeness and reason of a sage, humble Ulysses if we’re to win this battle for all.

    Slide 47: wrong IMO. It IS impolite to phone/txt/twitter/type on a PC while ppl are talking to you: common courtesy. Technology is not a god. Everything else though is excellent, and is a good reflection on how truth & knowledge is made universally available via the ’net, and the potential to empower all who seek. An issue it fails to work into the plot though is that hopefully the knowledge of the experience of teachers is better than a hundred bits of Facebook and blog rants. Technology and democratised ’net knowledge is great, but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

    (PS I am not a university boffin - in fact I only went there a few weeks, so I am not defending them.)

    I think this is a bloody brilliant presentation-very effective. (Also made me feel very proud to be British, beating those pesky Frenchies all those years ago LOL). Sarah

    I find myself wanting to talk about this presentation, to converse. Ironically, diigo is blocked at my school, so here I am, alone with my thoughts, left with only the option of adding a comment.

    Of course in 1415, Henry’s army would have thought of themselves as English rather than British (since the Act of Union with Scotland wasn’t until the 18th century). Can you find a cross of St. George flag to replace your union Jack with? :) The victtory song has even survived - Audio at
