BACKGROUND – BEC OF EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
There are limitless ways of producing knowledge. (Attwell, 2007)
And learning becomes multi-episodic, taking place in concurrence, in multiplicities, different facets, transforming and expanding.

First, to explore what drives the educational practices of these millennial learners.
Second, to focus on the learning content experience rather than the student profile or background.
Third, to scrutinize the experiences coming from two sets of undergraduate students, both with perpetual access to technology
OBJECTIVES
METHODOLOGY - PLAN
Gather videos for six months - Jun – Dec
Students create a two-minute videos with annotations
Use Creative Commons license Use a blog as a hub of
submissions
Submissions from University West and De La Salle University
METHODOLOGY – BUILDING THE VIDEO

•Students were more independent on their learning interests, preferences and even in the selection of understanding modality
INITIAL FINDINGS
First, the effective and affective experiences are derived from her personal learning experience.
Second, the millennial learner is self-directed; is able to define her learning priorities or preferences.
INITIAL FINDINGS Third, a collective observation in the experiment
exhibits the millennial learner as an excellent content and knowledge producer. The ML is also akin of story-telling or story
narratives. This has been observed in both cohorts of students.
Fourth, the Filipino video outputs exhibited more diverse learning styles.
NEXT STEPS
More descriptive ways of tagging or annotating the videos
Individual researchers’ video content analysis Consolidation and synthesis of analysis
FINAL WORDS
If the millennial learner is able to set her learning priorities, decide on what learning experience she must undergo and consciously decide what, when and how to learn— our — our present standardized present standardized educational methods of educational methods of linearity and conformity linearity and conformity may not be effective may not be effective anymore.anymore.
