Thanks for bringing these two video recordings to my attention. I expect I'll use them with some of my classes too, not only for the ethical content: I teach computer graphics.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! I'm wondering if you've come across similar videos that might be more appropriate for younger students. I think educating children about this issue starts early, but I don't think I'm comfortable showing these to elementary students. Although, I wouldn't hesitate to show it to my 5th grade daughter, so I may need to ponder that one.
