The document discusses the 'information (r)evolution' and its implications for students, emphasizing the shift from viewing information as a scarce resource that must be acquired from authoritative sources to a more dynamic interaction where students can acquire, share, discuss, critique, and create information. It highlights the transition from older Web models to Web 2.0, enabling broader engagement with information. The narrative also draws attention to the changes in literacy and the necessity for students to navigate, evaluate, and reflect on information across various platforms.

8. The information (r)evolution?The “message” of this environment is that to learn is to acquire information, that information is scarce and hard to find (that’s why you have to come to this room to get it), that you should trust authority for good information, and that good information is beyond discussion (that’s why the chairs don’t move or turn toward one another). In short, it tells students to trust authority and follow along.Michael Wesch, 2009.Text your message to 0416906973 or visit http://tinyurl.com/nextlife107
