Children's and young people's digital literacies
in virtual online spaces

Introduction

Schome ParkThe aim of this seminar series is to consider the digital literacy practices which take place in virtual online spaces and to explore potentialities for literacy educators. This seminar series will focus on contemporary innovative use of online virtual spaces. The virtual spaces considered include virtual worlds (VWs), online massive multiplayer online games (MMOG), and alternate or mixed-reality learning environments. We see these as intersecting with the related term Web 2.0.
