"Did You Know?"

Did You Know? (original February 2007 version)

“Did You Know?” was created by Karl Fisch, a teacher and Director of Technology at Araphaoe High School in Centennial, Colorado. In early 2007, Fisch’s school administrators asked him to speak at a start-of-the-year faculty meeting. He noted that “this year I’m really focused on staff development and the ‘vision’ of where we should be headed.” Fisch created a PowerPoint presentation that he titled “Did You Know?,” drawing from the work of Thomas Friedman, Ian Jukes, Ray Kurzweil, and other authors and teachers.

Did You Know 4.0 (September 2009 version)

Fisch’s original video received so many hits and was so popular that others have taken the content to remix it, update it, and recreate and extend Fisch’s original message. One of the most recent, “official” updates to “Did You Know?” is this 4.0 version.
