web 2.0

and social media?

web 2.0: collecting and sharing links, pictures, places,....

social media

talk about it

present all of it in your timeline

a boost of convergence between pc, tablets, smartphones, ... and between people, companies, bots, ...

social

andparticipation?

young people

not enough open space (sport grounds without a club, walls for sprayers)

„everything“ is regulated

offline

an offer by adults

you get a (small) part(icipation) of it

participation 1.0

but there is a change

participation projects

sustainable structures of participation

young people

internet is like a open space

create new forms of communication and cooperation

present yourself in your own way

there a no limits (of course there are)

online

young people seem to create their „own world(s)“ online

adults (like me) try to get in (and takeover)

participation X

guidelines of youth participation

#2 participation has always been 2.0

www.jugendbeteiligung.cc

if you are active offline

you can be active also online

no guarantee to activate the passive ones

#3 web 2.0 reinforces the active ones(?)

but

you can offer other tools/invitations (eg. short messaging)

young people find their individual outlets

(eg video diaries at youtube)

young people are overburdend with the plurality of information

need to differ between serious and nonserious facts before participation

(eg. hoaxes, conspiration theories, urban legends)?

the more information in the net the more guidance is needed

#4 participation 2.0 needs information 2.0

discrepancy between „young and old“

understanding net culture(s) of the young

discover the young talents in the web

#5 adults need translators and guides

for persons with a disability...

... the web offers access to „the world“

... the web 2.0 raised walls of captchas and other technical barriers

btw: facebook is not entirely accessible

#6 make it accessible

don´t think about facebook

don´t think about web

don´t think about technologies

rethink

why should (young) people participate in our project, in our community, in my...?

how can I reach them?

#7 there is no „out of the box“

wisdom of the individual

offline and/or online

online voting

maps, pictures, video

(moderated) discussions

....

#8 participation (2.0) is a mashup

„.....containing any or all of text, graphics, audio, video, and animation, which recombines and modifies existing digital works to create a derivative work“

source: wikipedia

participation like muesli needs lots of ingridients

contrary to muesli

in a participation process ALL the ingridients must be liked by the many participants

a participation process is a permanent changing development

#9 participation is not like muesli

you have to know the rules

the spoken and the unspoken ones

participation 2.0 is an experiment

chance to create own rules

#10 rules are to be broken

participation in the web already going on

make use of existing initiatives

empower the young innovative „digital talents“

#1 listen and look!

be part of it ...
