Students will have more fun while learning and will better experience a true liberal arts education. All of these changes can now occur because of a new technology called iMovie. Apple computers and iMovie make it easy and affordable for nearly anyone to make a high-quality movie. This technology could revolutionize education, and the revolution begins at Emory during iMovieFest. IMovieFest was the first major initiative of the group to enrich education at Emory.
Education is about the exploration and expression of ideas.
Technology in education, however, isn't about writing papers more quickly. Technology should be seen as a bicycle for the mind, not as an expensive typewriter. Technology is about enabling students to think through ideas and problems, and allowing students to persuasively and powerfully share their thoughts. Technology is about bringing students together to achieve what they cannot accomplish alone. Technology, in this sense, hasn't been widely adopted at most higher education institutions.
