video – Digital Campus https://digitalcampus.tv A discussion of how digital media and technology are affecting learning, teaching, and scholarship at colleges, universities, libraries, and museums. Fri, 08 Nov 2013 15:37:18 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.2 Episode #100 — The Best and Worst of 2007 https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/11/episode-100-the-best-and-worst-of-2007/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2013/11/episode-100-the-best-and-worst-of-2007/#respond Fri, 08 Nov 2013 15:37:18 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=1099 For our hundredth anniversary episode, the digital history fellows divided up the 2007 episodes of Digital Campus and picked their favorite bits — listen to the result if you dare, and be transported back to the days when the iPhone was brand new, when Second Life was the Next Big Thing, and when you had to have an email address with a .edu TLD in order to use Facebook. Good times.

Many thanks to digital history fellows Ben Hurwitz, Jannelle Legg, Anne McDivitt, Amanda Morgan, Amanda Regan, and Spencer Roberts for choosing the clips, and many many thanks to audiovisual guru Chris Preperato for stitching them together.

Episode 83 – Spring Broke https://digitalcampus.tv/2012/03/episode-83-spring-broke/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2012/03/episode-83-spring-broke/#comments Fri, 16 Mar 2012 17:32:34 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=861 Get out your sunglasses and tanning lotion, because it’s time for the spring break edition of the podcast. Tom, Mills, Amanda, and Dan bask in the warm retina-screen glow of the new iPad and wonder if tablets are about to take over the classroom. We revisit our slightly mocking pronunciation of certain new online education start-ups, and whether their model of video instruction actually instructs. Finally, we pour libations for the print edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica.

Episode 69 – Strange Bedfellows https://digitalcampus.tv/2011/05/episode-69-strange-bedfellows/ https://digitalcampus.tv/2011/05/episode-69-strange-bedfellows/#comments Thu, 19 May 2011 19:23:19 +0000 http://digitalcampus.tv/?p=477 Steve Ramsay joins us on the podcast as we scratch our heads over some strange decisions by the big tech companies, namely Microsoft’s $8.5 billion acquisition of Skype and Google’s entry into the netbook (or “Chromebook”) market. We also mourn the death of the Flip camera, killed by its similarly unlikely owner, Cisco. To end the show we return to our bread and butter of digital libraries to catch up with the Digital Public Library of America, which announced a summertime “beta sprint.” Perhaps they heard our frequent pleas for “less talk, more grok” and “less yak, more hack”?

Bryan tracks emerging trends in technology and higher ed, and gives us the inside scoop on what’s up and coming for the 2008-2009 school year. Our wide-ranging discussion in that feature segment and the news roundup covers the latest in mobile technology, ebooks, digital scholarship, course-management-systems, virtual worlds, gaming, and audio, video, and image-sharing, among other topics. We also obsess a bit about the significance of Google’s new web browser, Chrome. Join us for another year of Digital Campus!
