Other topics ran distantly behind: 11% of bloggers focus on politics and government; 7% on entertainment; 6% on sports; 5% on general news and current events; 5% on business; 4% on technology; 2% on religion, spirituality or faith. Additional smaller groups focus on a specific hobby, a health problem or illness, or other topics.
Crucial to teaching and learning in a digital age (more specifically, a digitally literate age), educators must be prepared to recognise the importance of participating in content creation. Teachers can offer a class blog which students update and podcasts for students to use as study aids or reminders of what occurred in the lesson. Students should be taught to articulate the skills required to fully participate in the online world and they must also recognise that media (new, as with old) shape perceptions and play a certain role in emerging knowledges.
Important to issues of literacy is the shift in focus from individual knowledge to communal expression.Digital literacy and transliteracy and multimodal literacy involve skills accrued through collaboration and networking like the kind facilitated by blogging and social software platforms like Facebook, Flickr, and MySpace.These platforms help build the skills necessary in the classroom.
Media-literacy-wise, education is happening now after school and on weekends and when the teacher isn't looking, in the SMS messages, MySpace pages, blog posts, podcasts, videoblogs that technology-equipped digital natives exchange among themselves.
This population is both self-guided and in need of guidance, and although a willingness to learn new media by point-and-click exploration might come naturally to today's student cohort, there's nothing innate about knowing how to apply their skills to the processes of democracy.''
