EXPLORING DIGITAL IDENTITY

“I don’t think education is about centralized instruction anymore; rather, it is the process [of] establishing oneself as a node in a broad network of distributed creativity.”

networked technologies
the imagined collective
which emerges(people + tech +
practice)
Educators need to pay attention to social networking sites as important for the social construction of identity, including personal, social, and learner identity.

...our reality is both technological and organic, both digital and physical, all at once. We are not crossing in and out of separate digital and physical realities, a la The Matrix, but instead live in one reality, one that is augmented by atoms and bits.

Digital Dualism versus Augmented Reality
It is wrong to say “IRL” to mean offline: Facebook is real life.

Learners need to practice and experiment with different ways of enacting their identities, and adopt subject positions through different social technologies and media.
These opportunities can only be supported by academic staff who are themselves engaged in digital practices and questioning their own relationship with knowledge.
