December 8, 2009, 8-9PM ET : Education in the Digital Age: a tour of FRONTLINE’s Digital Nation
FRONTLINE producers have learned a lot during a year-long, multi-platform project exploring the impact of the Web and digital media on life in the 21st century. PBS Teachers invites anyone interested in teaching about and with digital technology to join this FREE webinar touring FRONTLINE’s Digital Nation website.
The Digital Nation website will include online video reports on how the Internet and technology are changing cultures, reshaping workplaces and creating new approaches to the way we solve problems. Issues to be examined include the Web’s impact on education, how social media has changed the way individuals interact, and Internet safety and privacy. Central to the site will be a mosaic of user-generated content designed to let visitors participate in the documentary process. The site also will feature a producers’ blog, embeddable video and other sharable content, and a schedule of live online events with expert guests.
