My Edinburgh Coffee Morning chum Tim Maguire has produced a fantastic video short based on Alistair Findlay's forthcoming book, 100 Favourite Scottish Football Poems. Tim's a pro, and it shows, but I reckon this is the kind of writing/filming/digital storytelling that more students should be given the opportunity to explore.
Update: He's done another stonker!

Ewan McIntosh is the founder of NoTosh, the no-nonsense company that makes accessible the creative process required to innovate: to find meaningful problems and solve them.
Ewan wrote How To Come Up With Great Ideas and Actually Make Them Happen, a manual that does what is says for education leaders, innovators and people who want to be both.
School leaders and innovators struggle to make the most of educators' and students' potential. My team at NoTosh cut the time and cost of making significant change in physical spaces, digital and curricular innovation programmes. We work long term to help make that change last, even as educators come and go.

I think some of your edubloggers will recognise the fan featured in the clip above as a peripatetic music teacher from Fife - he did a great read!
It would be great to see some video responses to this from young students - the book comes out in mid-November but I'm sure the publishers, Luath would be open to approaches from teachers. If you're interested, please let me know.
