Final thoughts• Participatory and social media enable new forms of

communication and collaboration• Communities in these spaces are complex and

distributed• Learners and teachers need to develop new digital

literacy skills to harness their potential•We need to rethink how we design, support and assess

learning•Open, participatory and social media can provide

mechanisms for us to share and discuss teaching and research ideas in new ways•We are seeing a blurring of boundaries:

teachers/learners, teaching/research, real/virtual spaces, formal/informal modes of communication and publication
