A necessary ingredient for the discussion about online identities is the subject of privacy. Here the concept of big privacy explained by Ann Cavoukian
Part of NAVA's professional development session on social media for artists, Zoë Rodriguez from the Copyright Agency Limited discusses digital copyright, contracts and moral rights. (New Zealand)
We live in a global world - if you use someone's work from another country, take note of their copyright laws.
Great post. It's always nice to get insight into the "bigger picture" when talking about complicated laws like copyright instead of just isolated incidents.
More than just playing and making, be able to reflect after creating something new is what makes this new mode of learning different. One step further would then be "open to critiques", then learn from both peers and master.
Seemly Brown also discussed a new "networked identity": based on what one has created and what others have then built on it. This is the idea of building new things from other existing things, but give credit to where credit is due. Provide one's creation or product openly so that others can remix/build something new based on this product. This would be how an ideal knowledge environment would grow and sustain.
A really like the sequence of events he mentioned at the beginning: Create, Reflect, Share. It is so simple yet can result in so much production! And of course, it all starts with imagination :)
Great video! It will be/ is becoming the new mode of learning. We collaborate to create an active knowledge environment. It's definitely a mode of open learning, which can benefit all of us.

Good video! The most similar thing I have experienced in Madrid was in a Public Museum: they had creative software in a file of computers available for kids: They did their own drawings, and those were shown in several screens that were hangging on walls as paintings all around the museum, next by the "real" artists artworks. It is a peatty it was just for children to participate!
By the way, it is amazing the way this woman sweats in the video!
This video shows the possibilities for libraries: Encouraging users to create content in addition to absorbing it. Melanie Florencio provided excellent exemplars, spanning generations (the old and the young) and showing that all can participate.
This is the digital project I created for this course. It's an animated video introducing the topic connected learning. I shared the it on Stanford Education with all the details, I just want to also share here to reach large audiences. Hope it's helpful for you guys. :)
"Webcast sponsored by the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre and hosted by Open UBC Week. The Open Access 'Megajournal' (a class of journal defined by the success of PLOS ONE) is a reasonably recent phenomenon, but one that some observers believe is poised to change the publishing world very rapidly."
I am new to this subject. After seeing this video I understand how the professional movie makers work online. Advanced methods and cooperation in group with different roles. I can imagine it works well if you have a class to create a real movie production. Thank you for your presentation here.
This video on youtube is about the Brazilian educator and philosopher Paulo Freire. It contemplates some of his ideas about education for our appreciation and critical reflection.
I love the idea that progress and science being based on communication. Often the idea that I have in my mind is a scientist working alone, and that is never truly how the great break-throughs come, but rather from building on the science that we have learned about previously.
I still have a problem with the Author Pay part of Open Access publishing, and it seems like it is not actually "Open" if you have to pay to play. The Utopic Version is really the way that I think of "Open" publishing even with all the pit falls of finding the Utopia.
I like the rebirth by giving the onus to the reader to review, and that is a model that works as seen by Wikipedia, because people are willing to aid progress with out conventional compensation. I understand all of the problems with this, but I love the possibility.
