A video about how students learn

Michael L. Wesch, an assistant professor of cultural anthropology at Kansas State University, has posted another YouTube video about how students learn.

The four-minute video features the results of a survey of students in Mr. Wesch’s Introduction to Cultural Anthropology class last spring. The students developed the survey and wrote the script. In the video students hold up placards showing their responses, on average, to several questions.

They said their average class size is 115, and that only 18 percent of the professors they have had know their names. Watch the YouTube video , Read more
