- 2. Education is changing. Competition is changing internationally. The workplace, jobs, and skill demands are changing. The Case for Digital Learning
- 3. The Implications These changes, among others, are ushering us toward a world where knowledge, power, and productive capability will be more dispersed than at any time in our history—a world where value creation will be fast, fluid, and persistently disruptive. Wikinomics: How Mass Collaboration Changes Everything Don Tapscott & Anthony D. Williams
- 5. Digital Natives Our students today are all “native speakers” of the digital language of computers, video games, instantaneous communication, and the Internet. Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants – Marc Prensky
- 6. The Challenge Our Digital Immigrant instructors, who speak an outdated language (that of the pre-digital age), are struggling to teach a population that speaks an entirely new language
- 7. Digital Natives are used to receiving information really fast. They like to parallel process and multi-task. They prefer their graphics before their text rather than the opposite. Learning Profile of Digital Natives Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants – Marc Prensky
- 8. Learning Profile of Digital Natives They prefer random access (like hypertext). They function best when networked. They thrive on instant gratification and frequent rewards. They prefer games to “serious” work. Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants – Marc Prensky
- 9. Web 2.0
- 10. Web 1.0 Web 2.0
- 11. What is Web 2.0? "It's made of people. It's not content." Jeff Jarvis, Buzzmachine "The interconnected web." Andrew Anker, Six Apart "Web 2.0 is the two-way web where content finds you." Ron Rasmussen, KnowNow "People doing things together on the web." Mitchell Baker, Mozilla Foundation "Web 2.0 is about platforms that other people can build on." Rajat Paharia, Bunchball
- 12. What does Web 2.0 look like? Web as a platform Light-weight web applications; explosion in creativity User-generated content Increased accessibility; numerous media formats Sharing and re-mixing Culture; creating by assembly and interpretation Economic and educational value
- 14. Powerful Learning Environments Powerful learning environments are usually defined as being environments that seek to develop complex and higher order cognitive skills, deep conceptual understanding and metacognitive skills such as the ability to self-regulate one’s own learning de Corte 1990
- 15. Participatory Culture According to a recent study from the Pew Internet & American Life project (Lenhardt & Madden, 2005), more than one-half of all teens have created media content, and roughly one-third of teens who use the Internet have shared content they produced.

- 16. Forms of Participatory Culture Affiliations — memberships, formal and informal, in online communities centered around various forms of media Expressions — producing new creative forms, such as digital sampling, skinning and modding, fan videomaking, fan fiction writing, zines, mash-ups Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins
- 17. Forms of Participatory Culture Collaborative Problem-solving — working together in teams, formal and informal, to complete tasks and develop new knowledge Circulations — Shaping the flow of media Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins
- 18. Benefits A growing body of scholarship suggests potential benefits of these forms of participatory culture, including: opportunities for peer-to-peer learning, a changed attitude toward intellectual property, the diversification of cultural expression, the development of skills valued in the modern workplace, and a more empowered conception of citizenship. Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins
- 19. Impact on Learning Participatory culture shifts the focus of literacy from one of individual expression to community involvement. The new literacies almost all involve social skills developed through collaboration and networking. These skills build on the foundation of traditional literacy, research skills, technical skills, and critical analysis skills taught in the classroom.

- 20. 21 st Century Literacies
- 21. 21 st Century Literacies Play — the capacity to experiment with one’s surroundings as a form of problem-solving Performance — the ability to adopt alternative identities for the purpose of improvisation and discovery Simulation — the ability to interpret and construct dynamic models of real-world processes Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins
- 22. 21 st Century Literacies Appropriation — the ability to meaningfully sample and remix media content Multitasking — the ability to scan one’s environment and shift focus as needed to salient details. Distributed Cognition — the ability to interact meaningfully with tools that expand mental capacities Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins
- 23. 21 st Century Literacies Collective Intelligence — the ability to pool knowledge and compare notes with others toward a common goal Judgment — the ability to evaluate the reliability and credibility of different information sources Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century Henry Jenkins

- 26. Learning 2.0
- 27. Learning 2.0? Is it possible to draw on the activities emerging through social software to create learning communities which offer young people personalized, collaborative learning experiences such as those that are already emerging in the world outside the school gates ? www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 28. Social Software and Learning Some of the key attributes of social software in relation to education are that it: Delivers communication between groups. Enables communication between many people. Provides gathering and sharing resources . Delivers collaborative collecting and indexing of information. Allows syndication and assists personalization of priorities. Has new tools for knowledge aggregation and creation of new knowledge. Delivers to many platforms as is appropriate to the creator, recipient and context. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 29. Delivers communication between groups There are implicit mechanisms that allow interest groups to electronically coalesce – to be aware of what each other are doing and to review each others’ actions and to allow those actions to benefit each other member of a community. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 30. Enables communication between many people If the authors wish, all their work is available to the rest of the digital world. Access is available to expert and novice alike and, in fact, social software provides systems whereby experts and novices can work together. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 31. Provides gathering and sharing resources It provides a means of gathering and making material available. Simple acts like putting holiday snapshots on a searchable photo site can give others insight into the location, for instance; for other people making available their work in progress can both inform others and prompt critical feedback. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 32. Delivers collaborative collecting and indexing of information No longer is knowledge limited by historically constructed visions of curricula. There are new ways of organizing and finding knowledge objects that are of interest to you and the groups with whom you share interests. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 33. Allows syndication and assists personalization of priorities There are mechanisms to be passively active. You can choose what information streams you want to be kept informed about and that information will come to you rather than you having to go and seek it. It will help you both keep abreast with your co-workers’ online activity and those other information streams you actually prioritize. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 34. Has new tools for knowledge aggregation and creation of new knowledge The massive uptake of MP3 music players is indicative of a move to collecting material from many sources and aggregating it for our personal use. There are also tools that allow that content to be modified and incorporated in new formulations: the concept of a mash-up. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm
- 35. Delivers to many platforms as is appropriate to the creator, recipient and context Creators and users of social software tools and content know their lives are not constrained to desktops, they use many media: mobile phones; PDAs; MP3 players and games consoles. They increasingly expect that the digital part of their life will integrate with them in the context that they are in. www.futurelab.org.uk/research/opening_education.htm

A VoiceThread allows an entire group's story to be told and collected in one place. VoiceThreads can be embedded into blogs, wikis, and other web sites. http://voicethread.com/
- 68. Social Bookmarking and Tagging Fundamentally, social bookmarking is a web-based application that allows users to store bookmarked links to URLs in a format accessible via the internet rather than searching bookmarks stored on a specific computer.
- 69. Social Bookmarking and Tagging The point at which this bookmarking activity becomes social is when tagging is added to the functionality. This means that when users add a bookmark to their list, they also add a tag (a keyword) to that link. This means that users can search other people’s bookmarks through tags (keywords) defined by users.
- 70. Social Bookmarking in Plain English http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=leelefever
- 71. Clipping Tools Clipping tools are a compliment to tagging tools. A clipping tool sits on the toolbar of your browser and allows you to either clip the resource you are viewing and add it to your blog and/or add it to your social bookmarks. Whichever way you choose, clipping tools allow you to add annotation to information that you have found and want to keep a reference to, and then to share this information and your added value-tags and annotation with others.
- 78. Wikis
- 79. Wikis Wiki software allows people to easily upload content to the internet, with the important addition that it is then editable by other readers. One of the most well-known examples is Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia.
- 80. Wikis The principle behind the operation of wikis is that the knowledge of the group is greater than that of an individual, and that the group who use it are also the group who create it. In this way, individuals within the group decide when new entries should be created and through collaborative editing of entries an article will emerge that satisfies the needs of the group.

- 96. Affinity and Social Networks Personal networks are shared contacts systems - databases of contacts, and contacts of contacts. These are often geared to plain sociability (e.g. Friendster) or for business contacts (Linkedin). Affinity systems allow people to register their membership of groups – such as old school friends or work colleagues. Profile matching systems require individuals to enter personal details which are either matched against the profiles of others or searchable by others. This is the typical mechanism for dating websites, but this approach can be mapped onto any need to find people of a particular profile.
