Alien Tells NYC “The Internet is Serious Business”

Posted on 31 Dec 2008 in Uncategorized


A collaboration between PPH, Center for Urban Pedagogy (CUP), and
students from City-As-Schools.

 

 

As we rely more on the Internet as a tool for communication, education,
employment, and research information, it is important that we
understand more about how the Internet works. “The Internet is Serious
Business” is a video about the Internet’s physical infrastructure, who
owns it, how it works, and why that matters.

In addition to the video, we have also developed a comprehensive
workshop series around the concepts and themes in the film. Our
workshops are aimed at engaging classrooms, community centers, and
audiences in a meaningful conversation about how we can make
the Internet better and make it work for us. We have packaged our
teaching tools and workshop activities in a short companion guide that
educators and facilitators can use to conduct workshops in their own
communities.

To order your own copy of “The Internet is Serious Business” or for
more information on workshop guide and up coming screenings, please
contact Kristofer Ríos.

    -Jemima Williams,</br>Age 17

    After Radio Rootz I’m more open to other peoples’ point of view. I used to go by a lot of stereotypes, but working in journalism, you have to have an unbiased mind. It opened my mind and made me think more deeply than I normally would. And it helped me with my communication skills, it helped me learn to convey my points more clearly.
