NGf Travel Bursaries 2004
This year, the NGf supported 10 scholar-educators to attend the conference Digital Generations: Children, Young People and New Media, which was held at the Institute of Education in London on July 26th-29th. The conference brought together the most exciting and challenging new research on children, young people and new digital media. The call for papers was published in Autumn 2003, and over 100 papers from more than 30 countries were selected from around the world.
Conference papers covered a range of digital technologies including games, mobile phones, the internet and digital TV; and issues such as teaching and learning, youth cultures, commercialisation, regulation and play. There was also an education day featuring new research and strategies for teachers; a public event to address policy issues; workshops led by practitioners, such as games and web designers; and keynote addresses from leading international scholars, including GŸnther Kress and Sonia Livingstone from the UK and Henry Jenkins and Marsha Kinder from the US.
