„Edupunk is an approach to
teaching and learning practices that result from a do it yourself (DIY) attitude. Many instructional applications can be described as DIY education or Edupunk. It describes inventive teaching and inventive learning“ http://www.flickr.com/photos/inju/2592572391

EduPunk definition (Stephen Downes, 2008):
• - As a reaction against the commercialization of learning • - To symbolize the do-it-yourself of educational technology • - Thinking for yourself instead of being told what to think and learning for yourself instead of being told what to learn
