Ewan McIntosh on Digital Media Literacy

Ewan talk look at the fact that, in the context of education, the key to success is 'learning by doing' and promoting collaboration. He showcased how teachers, parents and students in Scotland are blogging, podcasting and using social technologies within the context of the mainstream curriculum and will suggest that just as these new tools are developed through self-organisation so our policy-making must be fashioned bottom up rather than in a top down fashion.

It good to see encouraging media literacy, as embracing technology is whats makes the future of digital media technologies so extensive,points to raise are would their be censorship on the web, unlike some eastern nations on their citizens. Without appealing to niche markets which stand to make a profit on learning also need to be up to date with the current market and climate to teach student that this is the change occurring at the fast current growth rate.
