Net Smart Discussion Questions

Digital and critical pedagogy argues for an awareness of our students’ learning needs, of the content we teach, and of the digital culture in which we all find ourselves. Howard Rheingold’s new book Net Smart (MIT Press) prepares us for that third layer of awareness, and the introductory chapter (available here as a PDF) introduces an exciting new “field” of study for teachers. Hybrid Pedagogy will be hosting a Twitter discussion (using the hashtag #digped) on this introduction on Friday, May 4, from 12:30pm-1:30pm EST (9:30am-10:30am PST), and we hope you’ll join us.

Net Smart: a #digped Discussion
April 27, 2012 | Filed in: #digped
by Pete Rorabaugh and Jesse Stommel
Hybrid Pedagogy will be hosting a Twitter discussion group on Howard Rheingold’s Net Smart: How To Thrive Online in both synchronous and asynchronous formats. Start by reading the introduction and join us on Twitter for a conversation about its implications next Friday, May 4 from 12:30pm-1:30pm EST (9:30am-10:30am PST) under the hashtag #digped. Net Smart’s introductory chapter is free for PDF download on MIT’s site for the book; however, since we hope to continue our discussion over the next few weeks, we encourage you to get the whole book. If you aren’t able to join us at 12:30pm EST on May 4, feel free to jump into the discussion asynchronously anytime on or around that day. We will conclude by capturing the content of the discussion via Storify a few days after the event.
