Changing competencies in the new media environment | TLT Symposium

Changing competencies in the new media environment is a summary of a presentation by Henry Jenkins at MIT. It lists the Classic and New competencies needed by youth. The list is refreshing – it doesn’t list all sorts of technical and business skills. It includes, Play, Simulation, Judgement and Negotiation, among other things.

The PDF of a long paper Jenkins wrote for the MacArthur foundation Digital Media and Learning project expands on this, see Confronting the Challenges of Participatory Culture: Media Education for the 21st Century.
