VOICEEVALUATION

:)

"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)

VOICEEVALUATION

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).
