Winston Churchill

at a political rally,
Liverpool, 1951

The "V" for victory that Winston Churchill used (with the palm facing outward, same as the American sign for "peace"), when the palm is reversed, it means something else... If a person used two fingers to order two beers in a British pub.. it has insulting connotations…

We may simply say language evolves?
Today, we cannot read and understand old English ?
We may also argue that our students are not learning another language…

The trouble…is that we have taken our democracy for granted; we have
thought and acted as if our forefathers had founded it once and for all. We
have forgotten that it has to be enacted anew in every generation.
John Dewey

Oh I come from a land, from a faraway place Where the caravan camels roam Where it's flat and immense And the heat is intense It's barbaric, but hey, it's home { Original first verse (1992-93): Oh I come from a land, from a faraway placeWhere the caravan camels roam Where they cut off your ear If they don't like your face It's barbaric, but hey, it's
home }

"I learned how to deconstruct commercials, how to use the camera equipment, and how to create a public service announcement. Most importantly, I experienced that every message can be interpreted differently. Depending on the era, personal experience, each sign makes different meaning to different people.Prior to taking this course, I simply watched a commercial at face value. I never really looked at the details or asked myself what target audience the advertising company was aiming for. Since class, I have been a commercial-analyzing junkie. I look at the color scheme, the logo, the endorser (if there is one), choice of music, and the intended target audience.”

“I am happy to have met
you, because you have
given me much more to
think about than just the
content of this class.
… More than learning video
production, this course
gave me the chance to
reflect on my own viewing
habits and I learned
something about myself.”
