Download - Digital culture co-creation: capturing the social impact of small-scale community projects
:)
"developed around “pre-existing valued interactions”
and enrich the value of these activities, instead of
substituting them"
(Deuze, 2006)
"opportunities for self-directed learning,
experimentation, and networking"
(Black et al., 2015)
"digital networks encourage greater connectivity,
collaboration, communication, community and
participation"
(Gere 2012, p.1)

“illusionary freedom and autonomy”
(Herring, 2008, p.73)
“culture of streaming, texts, tweets and statuses
updates” can result in addictive behaviours (Turkle,
2011)
Digital communities and identities are less complex
than their older offline, traditional forms (Hand, 2008)
Studies agree that active community
collaboration in social impact assessment,
provides a more critical and informed view
of the process and its outcomes
(for example Akpofure-Ojile 2003; Becker et
al. 2003; Douthwaite et al. 2007).
