  • Even when we talk about “digital citizenship,” we talk more about behavior or “Netiquette” than agency, which is essential to the participation of any citizen in participatory democracy.
  • I think that, as a society, we’ve been entirely too focused on taking agency away from children, representing them more as potential victims and passive consumers than as stakeholders in their own wellbeing and that of their peers and communities and active participants in user-driven media
  • as we stop focusing on blocking media and monitoring and controlling children and start helping them develop the skills of effective navigation and participation – they will not only be safer now, while still children, they will also be safer, more effective participants in participatory media and culture all their lives, long after they’ve left home and high school.

    This is certainly better than nothing, and what a generous spirit she is. But, kids need ubiquitous access. This has to change.

    A great and easy tool to organize/package learning content for students. Allows adding all sorts of content, including your own text and simply quizzes. You can create "classes", too.
