- In an article we read for class we learned about the participatory culture of education (low barriers, strong support for creating/sharing, informal mentorship, people feel their contributions matter, people feel social connection) as discussed by Henry Jenkins. What are your opinions about a participatory culture of education?
- With relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic engagement
- With strong support for creating and sharing one’s creations with others
- With some type of informal mentorship whereby what is known by the most experienced is passed along to novices
- Where members believe that their contributions matter
- Where members feel some degree of social connection with one another (at the least they care what other people think about what they have created).
