A Vision of Students in 2019

In Camosun's CMNS 150 class, we were asked to plan and produce a video on how students in 2019 experience post secondary education. This assignment acts as a response to Michael Wesch's A Vision of Students Today, and as such, is similarly formatted. My group chose to focus on how students experience Camosun through the lens of DIPR & DIGCOM. Our chosen commentary, though specific to the Lansdowne campus, reflects how we believe students experience education in 2019. To view our project for yourself, click here.

    Being able to go to post secondary is a privilege, but as your group noted, so is student dept. On average, most students graduate with $26 thousand in dept. This is only teaches us that life after college or university means paying off dept for an average of 10 years. Will our education be relevant then? Who knows, but still, we are told we should feel lucky. Lucky to start our lives in enormous amounts of dept.

In CMNS 150 we were asked to create a photo essay that possessed both narrative flow and visual appeal - without any redundant information. I chose to explore the Sidney Pier through the lens of crabbing, and the finished product available for view here .
