Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century

See on Scoop.itM-learning, E-Learning, and Technical Communications

Danielle M. Villegas‘s insight:

This is a fantastic whitepaper about the value of participatory culture in elearning and other digital means of education. This is very much the approach I come from in my own standpoint of using social media in elearning and mlearning, and just gathering information in general. The document is not light reading, but it’s very well-written, and seems fairly comprehensive. A must-read for those who are in education, elearning or mlearning. Really good stuff.
