Produsage Project

 I have been thinking about what to do for my produsage project, and believe my original idea at the beginning of the semester has now shifted. I am thinking about my future work as an Instructional Designer for companies, and want to combine my experience with 2.0 learning with a topic that may be relevant to what I will have to do in the real world. I think this may also help me in creating a portfolio for potential employers.

Collaboration and sharing ideas through the 2.0 world is a new idea for me, and I can see how it takes learning to another level in terms of technology and approaches to student-centered learning. This idea makes me think of the movie, Enders Game, as in the story, a young boy is chosen to lead a group of kids to defeat an enemy through technological based operations. The boy is at the center of command, and gives direction to his team. I think of each student as player one in this situation, each interacting with each other with them at the center of their learning. They can also respond and get feedback from those they are interacting with...
