Abstract
Can Homer Simpson support opportunities to learn? Can humming RESPECT by Aretha Franklin help in learning? The answer, of course, is "it depends." Students bring a variety of experiences and prior learning with them to the classroom. And, when learning is described from a number of different theories of learning, it is these experiences on which students will construct their new learning. For today's learners, these experiences, although varied, are likely to include experiences related to media forms such as television, movies, and computer games. In this paper I describe the media connections that learners spontaneously add to conversations and writing in their classrooms when provided the opportunity and how these link with the current content in the learning environment.
