Although I'm not a huge fan of his music, I can not disagree that Bob Dylan was/is one of the most influential people in music and pop-culture. His revolutionary music is still a widely referenced.
You can view the original video of reference "Subterranean Homesick Blues".
Here's where my interest comes:
Chris Lehmann, Principal of The Science Learning Academy, showed how this video inspired a student assignment in Language Arts. What message can you create, with limited space, but still inspires action?
Students were able to utilize this website to manipulate the Dylan video. True, the site is promotional of a CD for purchase, but this still provided an interesting opportunity of what Web 2.0 can do for today's student. This type of creative assignment that can be used in many different areas. Yet another sign of innovative teaching using Web 2.0.
I found this through Fischbowl, the blog of Karl Fisch, around the Arapahoe School.
You can view Chris Lehmann's sample here.
You can view Karl Fisch's sample called "What will you learn today?"
