MSU Fight Song: MAET style

by | Wednesday, August 26, 2015

The summer of 2015, there were 133 students and instructors in the hybrid and overseas components of the MAET program. These people were spread out across three locations: East Lansing, MI (with 2 cohorts, Yr1 and 2 of MAET); Chicago, IL (with 2 cohorts of the MSUrbanSTEM program) and  Galway, Ireland (with 3 cohorts, Yr1, 2 & 3).

2015 also happens to be the 100th anniversary of the MSU Fight Song.

It should come as no surprise that something interesting was going to emerge from this confluence of events and people.

So here it is. The MSU Fight Song: MAET style. 133 creators, and one awesome video. (A special thanks to Christina Lovell for weaving her editing magic in stitching the images together in perfect synchrony with the music).

Enjoy.

Technology Surveys for K12 students

Photo iPad Dream #2 by Lance Shields from Flickr I received an email from one Holly Marich, a doctoral student in our hybrid-PhD program, asking if I knew about any  technology usage surveys her school district can give their K-12 students. I didn't know of one so I...

The beautiful futility of art

Just came across this video about Milton Glaser. If you are interested in design you have to watch it for yourself. But here's a quote that stayed with me: The possibility for learning never disappears. Basically you have to admit you never learn it....

Arizona in black & white

Over the past two years in Arizona I have had the opportunity to indulge in my love for photography. Recently I felt the need to play with Adobe Sparks - and what better way to learn a new tool than to use it to create a photo album. Enjoy.
