Cathy Davidson and Mark Surman
Making web literacy the fourth literacy begins with the premise that not only are humans capable of learning together--we're doing it, contributing to peer learning online, every day of our lives. That is a major educational paradigm shift, the great gift we've been given by those who built the web on open architecture. Web literacy explains the world we live in and gives us the tools to contribute to that world.
