Author and researcher danah boyd says “By positioning youth as “other,” adults fail to recognize or appreciate the ways in which youth use technology to connect with others, learn, and participate in public life” (p. 42) Later she talks about how this generational posturing that we do (well, back in my day…) just adds to the participation gap.
How can teachers facilitate the integration of technology when we are culturally removed from the social norm? Does it matter?
Looking forward to your comments.
