‘From MySpace To Hip Hop’
Posted by anastasia on 03-25-2008
I just RSVPd for this must-attend Common Sense/MacArthur Foundation forum happening April 23rd at Stanford University. I’m guessing they’ll webcast it as well like they did with the virtual worlds panel I spoke on at USC.
Researchers from the Kids’ Informal Learning with Digital Media project will present case studies from a three-year ethnographic study that seeks to document what young people are doing with new media and online networks from the perspective of youth themselves.
