"Tra il 1992 il 1993, quando Tim Berners Lee e il suo gruppo di lavoro al CERN di Ginevra “inventarono” Internet come lo conosciamo oggi, pochi avrebbero pensato che questo sistema digitale di trasmissione dei dati avrebbe radicalmente cambiato la nostra società, il nostro modo di produrre, comunicare e insegnare. Oggi questo nuovo mondo digitale è diventato una realtà quotidiana per tutti noi. Più di un miliardo e mezzo di persone praticano tutti the day the revolution of social networking and web 2.0.
Millions of individuals mold and continuously re-invent these technologies through Facebook, YouTube and blogs
. The phenomenon is both global and local. Global
because there would be no economic and social globalization if new media had not spread around the world this electronic nervous system. Local because each 'digital citizen' every day creates his own identity and socializing online. The book has a dual nature: it is an essay, because it provides a key to interpreting and analysis on the impact of Web 2.0 and social networking on our communicative practices, social and professional is as a handbook presents the basics of the theories and techniques of
new media and learning technologies.
"They are men who use the technology and use technology and interaction with men are transformed," as of this guiding idea
we analyzed the interactions between the digital revolution 2.0 and social practices that occur in world of communication and publishing, education and the economy. A "second digital revolution", that of social networks and Web 2.0
yet to be discovered. "

Textbook publishers dream of the tablet

by Dave Caolo ( RSS feed ) on Jan 5th 2010 at 11:00AM

One of the things Apple should do to achieve runaway success with the tablet is incorporate textbooks. The folks at Coursesmart , a joint venture of five publishers that sells college textbooks as ebooks, have produced a video demonstrating how it could work.*

In the video, the user flips through available textbooks, makes a selection and begins reading. He also makes notes, views video of a lecture, adds an event to his calendar and searches the web for additional info, all while sipping a coffee. It's a neat idea, and just one of a slew of concepts that have recently surfaced.

But why textbooks? There are several reasons. First, college students are young and tech-savvy. They're also light on the finances often times, and ebooks are cheaper than their paper counterparts. Also, they could connect to iTunes U to find the books they need and lighten the load of heavy backpacks.

As for the publishers, this type of distribution would eliminate the school's resale of used books, which was a benefit for the students but did nothing for them. If the latest rumor is true, we only have a few more weeks to wait.

*Note that the video is entirely Coursesmart's imagining and not based on an actual product from Apple ... real or Com.
