The document discusses the concept of post-digital and argues that the first digital age is over. It notes that the education and creative sectors now live in a post-digital world. The key task going forward is to deal with the social, cultural, economic, and political impacts of digital technology rather than focusing solely on the technology itself. The document also briefly touches on related ideas like the disappearance of landscape and geography online, a shift in ideology toward entrepreneurship, and the need to teach students how to question what they see online.

Editor's Notes
- Opportunity to step back.
- Cultural, economic and political – arts uni = questions culturally. Tour of the post-digital = not talking about pros and cons because of context
- Research- Google? Normalised – smartphone = mundane Digital/analogue binary now gone = generational – no memory of the card catalogue = also older folk Perhaps not disruptive – ossifying existing paradigms – centralisation – VLE Institutionally dealing with scale.
- Normalised – smartphone = mundane
- Now we compare digital to digital Not natives though…. Mention V&R
- Wifi is everywhere – the Web as a place suffices all other places.
- Collapse of geography – “why turn-up at the university” – what does it mean to belong? Loss of ontology – “if the answer to your homework is a Wikipedia page you need to change the way you teach”
- Collapse of geography – “why turn-up at the university” – what does it mean to belong? Donna = cognitive mapping Need a critical mass for serendipity and for belonging + inspiration Loss of ontology – “if the answer to your homework is a Wikipedia page you need to change the way you teach”

- Loss of ontology – pinpoint correct answers.
- Tend to think – chaotic library? – why, because everyone can publish Less traditional markers of the ‘Authority’ of the author – arts = death of the author Everyone can publish = social media – self expression (difficult to do if you are just consuming) = co-presence = web as a place

- Locus of control – opens the way to ‘open practice’ -- control shifts to the individual
- Individual as institution = entrepreneur does not mean philanthropist – where is the balanced view, the neutral voice? Loss of landscape and the locus of control = no paternalistic gatekeepers = librarian or academic – less control over the available knowledge Digital labour Web driven by convenience (mention V&R project) – ideology is in the way search works – could be an evil corporation or collective agreement – either way it’s changed. Big data – learner analytics.
- Like learning to fix a car not drive a car Learning to build a kitchen but not how to cook
- Need to learn how to question the world. How to be citizens.
- Discuss epistemology - describe the nature of higher education – the environment does not do this for you
- Questions are the new answers.
