What Karine will be doing at DIY DAYS

FROM PASSIVE TO PARTICIPATORY – Bridging the Digital Divide

What is the digital participatory divide and why should we care? How can storytellers collaborate with teachers and co-create digital literacy experiences that spark creativity and bridge the divide? Who are the social activists & artists fueling this revolution in education? Come participate in co-creating an open source digital literacy tool for kids with Cynthia Jabar and the transmedia fairies for social good.
