The Jasper Series promotes a number of concepts in teaching and learning that are worthwhile to be considered:
Anchored instruction - situate learning using a real life problem or authentic context
Complex problem - problems to be solved are not trivial but may take several classes where students collaborate in the process
Generative learning - design of subgoals to solve problems
Span multiple subjects - problem solving that requires the use of knowledge from more than one subject domain
Technology based - use of multimedia to present the problem, use of AI to allow students to teach a similar problem to help them learn even more
The videos should be updated though since they look dated. New technologies such as Flash and other multimedia special effects may allow different problems to be posed and more interactivity by the students.
