And now, the end (of the sem) is near

Who woulda thunk it? It's been a pretty eventful semester -- for me anyway. Exciting outputs from my BC classes. I'm looking forward to teaching an all-new subject next sem too, though.

Communications 150 - Internet Studies (Comm150) is being offered by the college for the first time ever. Comm150 will discuss how the technology of the Web and the architecture of the internet as permeated our lives, the industries we move in, and simply, everyday life. Exciting! I've been tasked to teach it, and I took it.

It's funny that this is being offered as an elective, but in some universities it's practically a whole degree! In fact there are even subjects offered in high school! Wild, eh?

Anyway, more about that later. For now, I just wanted to share this video made by one of my students: a mash up of shots during our "Take It Off" Campaign for the UP Pep Squad during the UAAP Cheerdance Competition. The campaign was the final project for my Interactive Broadcasting Class and this mash-up tried to recreate the energy and excitement of that winning day.

So many stories to tell about that day, and the whole experience of teaching such a dynamic class! But in the meantime, enjoy this video, put together by Sisigman Jason Laxamana.
