Making sense of the intersection between media, society and technology
Regular readers will know that I was blogging from last week’s Convergence and Society conference at the University of South Carolina.

The educational projects showcased at the Convergence and Society conference offered just a snapshot of what is happening in classrooms across North American universities. They serve as an example of how new technologies are being used to teach new media, tapping into the habits and interests of a digital generation of students.
Please share your ideas either in the comments here or on Mediashift.
