Education Week: Literacy Accountability in a New-Media Age

  • I want my students to be able to assess the validity of a Web site.
  • I want them to watch thought-provoking YouTube clips and understand the point of view and potential bias of the presentation. I want students to read blogs and understand how or why certain images and videos are embedded within the text. I want them to be able to listen to podcasts and write down three features of the presentation that affect its tone and message.

21st Century Literacies

  • don't swallow the myth of the digital native. Just because your teens Facebook, IM, and Youtube, don't assume they know the rhetoric of blogging, collective knowledge gathering techniques of taggers and social bookmarkers, collaborative norms of wiki work, how to tune and feed a Twitter network, the art of multimedia argumentation - and, by far most importantly, online crap detection.
    • We assume teens/youth are savvy with their online abilities, but critical thinking and intelligent discourse do not develop automatically. This is a good argument for allowing more access in classrooms to currently blocked sites, so that educators can teach these skills. - on 2009-04-11
    Add Sticky Note
  • the difference between the haves and have nots, between education and disinfotainment, is not a matter of hardware or software or even (entirely) of being able to afford access to the Web. The most important critical uncertainty today is how many of us learn to use digital media and networks effectively, reasonably, credibly, collaboratively, civilly, humanely.
