Reflection on assessment

You need a picture of competence to be competant.
You need a picture of assessment success, to be successful at an assessment.I thought this was really interesting.
Really loved all the presentations today, I personally felt like I learnt so much from each single one.

Digital Equity, Accessibility, & Universal Design: What do you know about Web 2.0? | HASTAC

Digital Equity, Accessibility, & Universal Design: What do you know about Web 2.0? | HASTAC
So I am researching about Equity in Digital Content and its interesting that it still comes down to the basics race, class, gender and justice, human dignity, equality, equity. And really importantly making sure the content is culturally relevant. A really good article is http://www.edutopia.org/ensuring-technology-access-all

It has also stirred my interest about preservation and protection in the digital world
There is an emerging equity that needs to be understood and which enables all of us to potentially be a writer, creator, or film-maker. While the literature on community/citizen-created content is clear regarding the worth of this content and the need to readily access and share it, there is a deafening silence about the need to protect and preserve it. This need exists, of course, so that we can harness the ideas of 21st century creativity and inspiration for future generations to understand, and draw new learning's from.
