Our students are involved in an architecture of participation creating, adapting and sharing content. While for them this learning is a comfortable multimodal conversation, for us this change is revolutionary. Schools and school libraries have many challenges to address to create a renewal of pedagogy and technology work practices. As we begin to understand the importance of these seismic shifts, we come to the realisation that we are being challenged to un-learn and re-learn in order to grant students access to 21st century learning. We hope that Connect, communicate, collaborate will provide the knowledge, inspiration and motivation to get you started. The Learning in a Changing World series addresses how the process of learning is evolving including the array of resources available in the digital age, changing curriculum, and the different teaching strategies needed in order to use new media and technologies.
