Our students are involved in an 'architecture of participation' - creating, adapting and sharing content. While for them this learning is a comfortable multimodal conversation, for us this change is revolutionary. As we begin to understand the importance of these seismic shifts, we come to the realisation that we are being challenged to un-learn and re-learn in order to grant students access to 21st century learning. Schools and school libraries have many challenges ahead to renew pedagogy and technology work practices. We hope that Connect, communicate, collaborate will provide the knowledge, inspiration and motivation to get you started.
