The document discusses the power of remixing, mashups, and recontextualizing creative works in education. It provides many examples of how students can engage in remixing works through methods like cut-ups, parody, and crowdsourcing. Remixing is framed as an important way for students to be creative, participate in learning, have fun, and develop innovative thinking. The document advocates moving students beyond simply reiterating or regurgitating ideas toward repurposing and building on existing works.
