| Immortal Jellyfish: Turritopsis nutricula |
...Ghosh is
quizzed by his academic sister Cerese:
Ghosh: I’ve enrolled. Marine
Biology. Online.
Cerese: But distance
learning can feel very isolating. Studying on your own. Not knowing if you’re
the only one having difficulty.
Ghosh: And his field:
immortality. Jellyfish.
Cerese: OK. Great topic.
Useful. But academics don’t always make their online offerings palatable. Long
tracts of text, no pictures – did you know 80% of what we learn is visual?
Ghosh: PDFs to
read, JPGs to illustrate, YouTube talks to listen to, site links to virtual
reality museum tours, videoconferencing one a week of the online learning
community.

Voice-over
Online learning is not for
everyone.
Instructors have a responsibility
to entertain as well as educate. For example, Shin Kubota is great at karaoke.
Students have a
responsibility to make sure they have a need for taking the course. Who can
argue with immortality for motivation?

What did Walt Disney say about entertainment?
A. He said about entertainment that "I would rather entertain and hope that people learned something than educate people and hope they were entertained."
Educating is the human's generated power , I think.
It is because human are inteligent animals.
For example, even there are making their own societies as like as the other animals, the relationship is complicated.
So I guess online could be as a inteligent person, but it would be difficult to learn the societies from their process.
Entertainment could know about the feeling that how to react from their products.
