But
while these students are often
described in catchy terms, first and
foremost consideration should be
given to the notion, that it does not
seem to be fair to form a prejudice
against a new generation as a whole.

“As such most of the learning that
takes place on Facebook is the
learning that would have taken place
previously in the corridors, back of
classrooms, cafeterias and after-
school telephones conversations.”

Media are often not part of
the instructional design,
and often begin with an

Media Literacies
Include information and media literacies
(e.g. Schiefner-Rohs, 2012)
Media literacy can be defined as ”the ability to access,
understand and create communications in a variety of
contexts“ (Buckingham, 2005, p. 3).
