I liked both videos. The seamless integration video, I think is what Howard Gardner wants schools to start to become like. Many children are learning by different ways at the same time. These kids are really advanced with their hands on learning for their age. When I was their age, I didn't know how to scan images and create little movies when I was their age. The educational world is evolving and computers are the wave of the future. We should take that and give the kids a headstart to knowing how to use these so as they get older it will be easier for them to learn and apply their knowledge of computers and the internet. I think using concept maps and slide shows helps all of the children because as you go over the slideshows or concept maps with them, tey can see it, and you tell them about it so they hear it. They can see how it all falls together. They can better understand stuff. I feel it is just like outlining in a book but more interactive with pictures and colors. Better than just copying something just out of the book. I feel that Gardner wants to see more of what is going on in the seamless video in the world. He wants there to be more education through hands on and everything..
