It is Friday tomorrow

I am so pleased that it is friday tomorrow.

I spend my day at the media literacy conference today. for those that don't know, media literacy is the process of accessing, analyzing, evaluating and creating messages in a wide variety of media modes, genres and forms. It uses an inquiry-based instructional model that encourages people to ask questions about what they watch, see and read.- wiki

The conference was pulled togther a number of speakers across many industries - education, polict, government, media etc and looking at the emergence of web 2.0 - a perceived second generation of web-based communities and hosted services — such as social-networking sites, wikis and folksonomies — which aim to facilitate creativity, collaboration and sharing between users. - wiki. The debate on the risks to children was discussed and how what and where the collective responsibility of ensuring that children and vunerable people can access, enjoy, learn and protect themselves when online.- wiki

More interestingly, the presentation from yemisi blake and jelly ellie was the most inspirational.
