This morning I was doing some surfing and came across a Site called The GoodPlay Project. They study how roles that youth assume online and the ethical issues they face when using digital media.
They has some fascinating research posted on their site. Two papers I found really interesting where Developing Minds with Digital Media: Habits of Mind in the YouTube Era and Young People, Ethics and the New Digital Media.
The Developing Minds with Digital Media: Habits of Mind in the YouTube Era paper takes a look at the stages of development of today's youth and the influence digital media in today's culture has on this.
In the paper Young People, Ethics and the New Digital Media the authors explore how digital media is redefining five key areas: identity, privacy, ownership and authorship, credibility, and participation.
