17. More time consuming media
...Or what is called entertainment media.
8-18 year olds devote over 53 hours/week to entertainment media
Multitasking means they can fit 10:45 into 7:30 every day
TV+Internet+Mobile
TV leads, but SNS, Videogames and YouTube are the top activities as
they go “online”
Elementary school boys spend twice as much time as girls - 5.5 vs
13hrs/week - playing videogames
Preschoolers play for 28 minutes/day
18. Tell me something
and I’ll forget,
Show me
and I may remember
Involve me
and I’ll understand.

20. Internet enabled society
Is an ecosystem
With access to endless content
No language barriers
And cultural understanding
We will learn from one another
We are already
We will (hopefully) form our own opinion
And we will give lots back to the generations to come
