At the beginning I would like to say a few things about my expectations about this course and my backgrounds of this topics:
1. academic and professional background and personal learning objectives with regard to this seminar
I study social informatic, so during my study I was informed of new technologies and their impact on the
individual's everyday life and society as a whole.
2. experiences with digital communication environments and online learning tools such as: social network sites, peer-to-peer communication, collaborative tools, digital libraries, online literature resources, and social science databases
During my study I had to look for literature resources out of libraries in online enviroments, surch for datas in various databases, use social network sites for research purposes, etc.
3. tentative ideas for the paper to be completed by the end of the seminar.
I am interested in the impact of new technologies in various fields, such as education or the creation of an individual's online self-presentation in the web (social network sites).
