Howard Rheingold’s talk on a new culture of learning (Presented by Berkeley Center for New Media Jan 23/12)

Howard recounts some of his early work as an ‘Electronic Ethnologist’, dispels the myth of the digital native, and describes his latest experiments combining technology and pedagogy in participatory media. Drawing from master theorist of critical pedagogy, Paulo Friere, Howard speaks about scaling the banking model of education towards a new “Peeragogy”.
