A New Beginning

Digital literacies present a new beginning to human communication, and an ending: the beginning is the connection we all now have in the global village.  The ending is the demise of single-path literacy--alphabetic, traditional, stable, and comfortable for most of us.  Now we are communicating in/from many directions, broadband, multimodal...there are many possibilities for personal and social development and many dangers to avoid. It's a brave new world indeed.
