New Media Literacies website

Posted by Jerry on February 21st, 2007 — Posted in Journal, New media, Technology, Writing

MIT’s New Media Literacies website is integrating new media into education for K-12 students. The site  makes good use of participatory technologies – blogs, Flickr, and so on to stimulate students. And it showcases free videos and student activities. One of the best introductions I’ve seen to video-blogging or vblogs is the tutorial by Steve Garfield, John Barth, Jason Crow and Four Eyed Monsters on Flickr

The series includes:

• Welcome to videoblogging
• Is videoblogging news?
• basic production
• Community and conversation
• Film making2.0
• Ethics and Ownership
• Vlogs as citizen media

It’s well worth a visit 🙂

Thanks to Beth’s Blog for the link.
Cheers
Jerry
