That is basically what the video Epic 2014 predicts.... http://www.robinsloan.com/epic/ Everyone becomes a contributor to the "news"...and presents their own viewpoints relating to the topic, rather an objective reporter...(a great topic for journalism classes at every level). [This is a great way to utilize those historical newspaper databases---to examine the differences between writing styles of the different eras in print sources and the writing styles of online sources / websites / newspapers. How have editorials changed? How have human interest stories changed? How are stories sensationalized both then and now? What was "the most" trusted source of information among various print sources and why? (Could those questions be answered?) I've used the video as a springboard to examining the impact of a 2.0 world for freshman library orientation to examining online resources. What happens when everyone has access to information that can be changed immediately? What is the peer-reviewed process in pubication and is it still valid today? What impact do we (as information consumers) have on various information publications? Does information become more accurate and refined, or is it just "fluff"? ~Shonda -- Shonda Brisco, MLIS Library Media / Technology Specialist Digital Bookends wiki / blog: http://digitalbookends.pbwiki.com http://shonda.edublogs.org/ sbrisco@gmail.com Resources for Texas School Librarians: http://txschoollibrarians.ning.com/ http://txschoollibrarians.wikispaces.com/ "Digital Resources" columnist School Library Journal -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
