The Adventures of Bollywood Blackboardwala
Here’s a small series of humorous episodes related to recent Blackboard and Open Source Learning Management Systems.

The mashups are made with snippets of classic Hindi Bollywood films, overlaid with user created subtitles, from a fun online tool called BombayTV from Grapheine.

The role of Blackboardwala is played by none other than Amitabh Bacchan, of course.

I love the clips he used…but unfortunately it’s difficult for me to follow because I understand the language the actors are speaking and their words don’t follow the subtitles. So for a given scene I have to process two different meanings simultaneously. There’s an ID lesson somewhere in there :-)
