A talk by Beth Ferholt entitled: "Adult and Child Development in the
Zone of Proximal Development. Socratic Dialogue in a Playworld" is
now avaiable on vimeo.com
http://vimeo.com/groups/39473/videos/15011909
This talk supports the 2-part video made in a classroom with kids
planning a dramatic performance which people would have seen before.
Robert Lecusay is also involved. Beth and Robert will be amending
the video but it will remain available via the CHAT group on Vimeo:

Many of you may be interested in the latest addition to the
collection of CHAT videos on vimeo.com:

The video is an interview recorded via Skype in Melbourne
Australia, with Peter Smagorinsky in Athens, Georgia USA, on
Vygotsky's Psychology of Art.
Apologies for the quality of the video at my end, but fortunately,
you won't see much of it. The quality of the video and audio at
Peter's end is OK.
In a 30-minute interview one can't go too deep, but Peter does a
marvellous job of stimulating interest in the topic rather than
pontificating, and offers new angles on a number of issues of
interest to everyone on this list.
Peter has a paper in an upcoming issue of MCA. I read the paper and
this gave us the basis for the interview. This is something anyone
of us could do, interviewing an MCA author. Peter's interview is
not intended to be at the level of peer reviewed research, but is a
great introduction to the topic of the journal article. Future xmca
discussions would possibly benefit from such interviews. The whole
job is done with Skype (which is free) and Vodburner which you can
'hire' for $10 a month, and includes a somewhat clunky but adequate
video editing tool.
Anyone interested in emulating this idea?
Andy
