Definition of Virtual Communications
Virtual communications encompasses a broad spectrum
of concepts, technologies and practices that are central to our daily lives.
In our society today, we can now communicate with a friend or co-worker in another
country or continent instantaneously. We can earn a college degree or take continuous
learning classes online with the click of a few buttons. The proliferation of
information and communication tools, like e-mail, instant
messaging and Internet telephony has revolutionized
the way we work and live. How we use the technologies, such as email and collaboration
tools, can influence the quality of the work we do and can determine
our ability to function as a high producing, high performing workforce. Virtual
communications facilitates the ability to know and understand how to access
and share information electronically and is a portal through which a world of
limitless learning opportunities exist.

This film was created as the Keynote for Net Generation Education Project: http://netgened.wikispaces.com When kids at the Suffern Middle School were asked to talk about education and their future, they gave Peggy Sheehy, the SMS media specialist, an earful. Listen and learn the bits of wisdom that can be gleaned from the students, if we only dare to ask them. Students from The Elisabeth Morrow School Tech Club contributed machinima created in Quest Atlantis. Marianne Malmstrom (aka Knowclue) worked remotely with the students of Suffern to create machinima of their avatars on Teen Second Life. Original music, "Harpsicord" was created by a former Suffern Middle School student, Larry Bordowitz. All editing was done by Peggy Sheehy and Marianne Malmstrom.

By Wendy Drexler The Networked Student was inspired by CCK08, a Connectivism course offered by George Siemens and Stephen Downes during fall 2008. It depicts an actual project completed by Wendy Drexler's high school students. The Networked Student concept map was inspired by Alec Couros' Networked Teacher. I hope that teachers will use it to help their colleagues, parents, and students understand networked learning in the 21st century.
