Thought I'd take a break from my thesis to post a video that always gets me thinking about the education side of digital humanities...

ePals also offers lesson plans that seem to be geared toward promoting eliteracy even in an isolated classroom environment. The unit that grabbed my attention, of course, was on Digital Storytelling. How cool is it that there's a company designing digital storytelling lessons for elementary school kids??

The HASTAC-MacArthur Digital Media and Learning Competition was announced publicly on August 15, 2007. The Competition closed October 15, 2007, with an overwhelming number of applicants. We had planned for approximately 300 applications, and received more than triple the prediction. The range and diversity were extraordinary, as we have conveyed in earlier blogs in this series. Each application was read by two initial judges, scored, and ranked. The finalist pool of 80 proposals was scrutinized and discussed in detail by 10 experts. We ended up awarding 17 stellar projects. We hail all the applicants, and heartily congratulate the winners.

Last week, we blogged about the selection process for the Digital Media and Learning Competition. This week we pass along some of what we have learned from the Competition about what it means to build a new field.

As many of you know, Cathy Davidson and David Theo Goldberg have been working on a project entitled ?The Future of Learning Institutions in a Digital Age? that explores the possibilities (and challenges) that have arisen as new technologies change the way we learn.

IT is great and important. Is it "digital learning"? Sometiimes. Not often. Usually it is top-down learning, facilitated by technology. What we mean by "digital media and learning" is more collaborative, customized, bidirectional thinking and learning that uses digital means to enhance those interactions and, where possible, to think about technology too.

We took photographs today in the DiV virtual reality space and then in the FCIEMAS atrium outside of it.  It was . . . real!
