Randy Pausch's Last Lecture
Mr. Pausch is such an inspiration. For all of the elephants in the room, Mr. Pausch received some tragic news. The doctors told him he only had three to six months to live. Even though he received such terrible news, he still had such a funny, uplifting, positive attitude about it and he did not let it stop him from doing what he loves, teaching and helping others. In this video, Mr. Pausch is very big on achieving your dreams and enabling the dreams of others. He explains the importance of workikng hard to get yourself where you are today and in the future. "Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted." He believed children should have a fun experience of learning and explained you can do that with project based learning, which allows students to express their creative side. Mr. Pausch has taught me so much just through one lecture. I will forever keep this inspirational information in my future. This is by far the best video we have gotten to watch in EDM 310, and I can now say I had the privilege of getting to know Mr. Pausch through his lecture.
