Teens are not connecting in
the ways we fear. But, we need
to pay attention to:
•Properties: persistence,
replicability, searchability,
scalability, (de)locatability.
•Dynamics: invisible
audiences, collapsed contexts,
blurring of public & private @zephoria
spaces
24. Michael Wesch
• Inspired by McLuhan’s
“We shape our tools and
thereafter our tools shape
us.”
• Youtube & other social
media mitigate “connection
without constraint”. In
many cases this leaves to
@mwesch “tremendously deep
communities”.
26. “A key to transformation
F/OSS is for the teaching
profession to establish
Movement innovation networks that
capture the spirit and
culture of hackers - the
passion, the can-do,
collective sharing.” ~
~Hargreaves
28. Open Content
“describes any kind of creative work in a
format that explicitly allows copying and
modifying of its information by anyone,
not exclusively by a closed organization,
firm, or individual. (wikipedia)
29. Open Access
“The aim of the open access movement is to make
scientific and scholarly literature openly accessible
to all users free of charge.” (open-access.net)
open access is beginning to expand to conferences,
courses, and other educational events
52. this is not going away
social media provides
engagement/motivation
incredible possibilities
for teaching and learning
ethical responsibility of schools
good teaching is shared & transparent
53. Don’t limit a child to
your own learning, for
he was born in another
time. ~Tagore

How many people have watched this video “David After the Dentist”, a seven year old boy coming home from the Dentist after some anesthetic. Something like 21 milllion people have now viewed this clip, and there have various remixes. And there are certainly some issues of what we share online, how it quickly goes out of our control. This is something all of us must understand.

And to think about the reach of this course, with no marketing or PR beyond Saskatchewan. With almost all free or open source tools. And the kicker, the majority of students not participating for credit.
