Steve Jobs is a better teacher than me.

If I had any kind of access to vital learning tools, like internets or computers, I would use this Apple commercial when I teach 1984 to this year's group of seniors.



Because:

a. My students only respond to visuals, and only learn from pictures, and
b. We could discuss the irony of a mega-corporation assuring us "1984 won't be like '1984.'"

But on the bright side, at least my job affords me the necessary free time to indulge in profound existential despair.
