Klappentext
Digital connectivity is a phenomenon of the 21st century and while many have debated its impact on society, few have researched relationship between the changes taking place and the actual impact on learning.
Engagement with digital media and slipping through digital spaces with ease is something that many (young) people appear to do well, although the tangible benefits of this are unclear. Research to date has largely focused on the negative effects of the 'always on' culture, characterized by engaging with Facebook, Twitter, and 24 hour texting, but few have examined the advantages of this constant 'digital tethering'. Further there are also unfounded negative opinions about it that reverberate across not only the media but also academia.
