Part of this weeks lab was dedicated to discussing and working to improve the structure of the un-lecture. We worked in small groups to share our opinions, and this is what me and two others came up with:

Problems?

• could have been more of a group discussion
• not enough questions were addressed
• despite it wanting to be an open forum, it was still just one person talking
• perhaps more concise answers so that more questions could be answered
• if he took the additional questions, read through them, he could blog some answers to them 
• still slightly unclear

Positives?

• referred to us as knowledge producers and not knowledge consumers 
• how to conduct ourselves: our blog is a permanent, public record of us 
• the legislative and media law was interesting to know 
• he told quite a few anecdotes which were entertaining but still informative
• turned off our laptops and went old school (good for concentration and engagement purposes)

What ideas and possibilities did it suggest?

• we can blog about anything: it is not just limited to just network media
• it is important to have a voice 
• the internet has such an impact 
• now everything is a network: you don’t need a degree to film but we are studying
• each class and lecture costs us money! So we may as well turn up

Suggestions?

• perhaps students should blog their important questions and draw Adrian’s attention to them, then he and the tutors could filter through them and find the important ones to address then in the lecture 
• perhaps a live twitter feed could work quite well
