Peter Kittle, Ignite Talk Thursday from DML Research Hub on Vimeo.

Peter Kittle, Director of the Northern California Writing Project, delivered this brilliant examination of memes, guerilla advertising, and the messiness of inquiry during his Ignite talk, “Good Memes, Bad Teaching,” at the 2012 Digital Media and Learning Conference.

For those unfamiliar with the genre, Ignites entail a presenter talking for 5 minutes in conjunction with a PowerPoint slide deck autoadvancing every 15 seconds.

The Ignite motto: “Enlighten us, but make it quick.”
