DESCRIPTION
In spite of an ever growing landscape of social media and social networking, the bulk of learning media today is still rooted in ancient traditions. In this session Allen Partridge will incite and facilitate a discussion of roadblocks to the expansion of social networking in the context of media and learning. Are the sacred cows of teaching and learning with media changing? Should they be changing? Together we'll look at the anticipated, the actual and the potential change triggered by social networking / social media in the context of learning.
