This Monday is Halloween which also happens to be the day that my class at York College meets up. I’ve noticed over the past couple weeks that the two sections’ time slots of 10AM-12PM and 2PM-4PM have been Auto DJ on DS106 Radio, so we’re planning an DS106 Radio Educational Horror Show. It’s going to be an open mike bash session of all our worst most terrifyingly bad experiences of teaching gone wrong. We’re also open to any stories of the spooky/creepy sort as well. For some inspiration, below is a video created by Michael Wesch with his students speaking to many of the horrors of higher education.

If any open participants, particularly Prof. Lockman’s crew from Japan, we’ll leave open the Skype to take calls on my handle, mbransons. Here are a couple things you can do for Monday’s DS106Radio Educational Horror Show and anything you make add the tag ds106horror or tweet the hashtag #ds106horror.
1. Create a DS106Radio Horror Show Bumper for Monday. I made a DS106 Radio is the Thriller bumper yesterday, but there are a ton of examples of bumpers to listen to in the assignment bank.
2. Frankenstein any ds106 assignment into the horror genre.

An “old” video in web2.0 sense, but thanks for re-framing it in context of the ds106radio Educational horror show. It was nice to revisit it today. I would very much like to join you, but will be leading an all day training. I dare say there will be a lot said on the matter of educational misdeeds and horrors.
