YouTube, a company that didn’t
exist just a few years ago,
hosts 100 million video
streams a day

The Diverse and exploding Digital Universe ‐ IDC


Ten Years Past
Few or no experiences with....
websites, email, spam, phishing, computer viruses
mobile phones were rare and expensive
a Sony Walkman was state of the art
CDs were pretty cool
WiFi was almost unknown
The library was all about books!

Students

have the ability to search, work or
publish at will in text, audio and video,
or any combination of these.

The personal digital Web 2.0
environment of our students is
global in scope and nature, and
always available

the learning environment
we create for them should reflect this

On Wednesday, Feb. 4, 2009
Google launched
Latitude, a location-tracking
service that uses GPS hardware
found in smart phones to pinpoint
your position on a map and share
that information with friends.

“Right from the outset –
the internet had a
completely different use
for students.”.
- Dean Groom, Head of Learning Design, MQ University

We now have a information ecology that
is an open, self-managed, fostered, and
conducive to knowledge flow between
content and connections.

quot;This new media environment can be
enormously disruptive to our current
teaching methods and philosophies.

Students need to move from being
simply knowledgeable to being
knowledge-able.quot;

been computers and the internet, where information is
always instant and varied. Our teaching and their learning
must reflect this”.
