PDFSocial networking, the "third place," and the evolution of communication

02 March 2009The purpose of this white paper is to put forth a proposition that technology has not only mediated communication in countless ways, but that the very ways we communicate - and even the ways we talk and think about communication - are changing as a result.

This paper is not intended to be a lexicon of terms and definitions. Rather, its focus is to consider the ways that communication is changing and raise the question of how this shift can be applied to teaching, learning and creativity.
