The CTC system needs to create one of these videos. The people who view these and "get" these are those already bought into the revolution. The most powerful line of that last one is, "It's not altruism, it's reality".
What if we created something like this that takes a simple task (familiar to most legislators and decision makers from the 1950's) and then we modeled how that task has changed. For example:
Communicating in written form to constiuents
Change 1 took 50 years (from screen press to the single copy) Change 2 took ten years (from single copy to photocopy machines) Change 3 took 5 years (photocopy via a computer desktop) Change 4 took 1 year (document straight to constiuents via email) Chnage 5 took 1 month (message on a web-page with an alert message sent) Change 6 took 1 week (RSS feed from the web page) Change 7 took 1 day (the same message replicated on every caucus members page, almost instantly) Change 8 took 1 hour (the message was sent around the world. . .)
My point is, let's pick something decision makers uderstand and remind them how they are using it as an example of how it can and is being used to change the landscape of education.
