If you want to have an idea of how your children, grandchildren, learners perceive and use new media, you cannot fail to read the final report of the Digital Youth Project 's research , the result of 800 interviews and over 5000 hours of online analysis. The observation of digital natives in the context of new media ecology brings to light two types of participation in online activities: – a participation guided by friendship , prevalent among young Americans, which shows the aptitude for using the public space of the internet to replicate and intensify the relationships established in physical spaces (school, gym, catechism...). – an interest-driven participation , which develops mainly around a common passion, often niche, around which the hierarchy of friendships is structured.
These types of participation can be expressed in three ways, which describe Brazil Phone Number different degrees of use of new media and different social and learning dynamics: – “ hanging out ” is the natural attitude to integrate social media into daily activities in order to share experiences, play or stay in touch with your friends even when you are physically distant. The use of Facebook to flirt , publicly, but away from the eyes of one's parents, through messages left on the "walls" or to gradually get to know a person and their friends before going out is interesting.
Messing around ” is the use of social media to understand, autonomously explore notions and worlds through a process of trial and error, which may or may not lead to sophisticated forms of content production (e.g. the use of search engines or the “copy and paste” of code to build your profile on MySpace,…) – “ geek out ” expresses the use of public online space to deepen one's passions and come into contact with communities of experts, in order to receive feedback and improve. While waiting to read the book that will be derived from it, " Hanging Out, Messing Around, Geeking Out: Living and Learning with New Media ", it seems to me to be an excellent way to understand, beyond the superficial interpretations of some mass media, how young people use technology to build one's identity and experiment with the rules of social coexistenc.
