A network that would allow for students to interact and share resources. Sort of like Facebook but specific for students to share academic resources.
New media fosters creativity in that it creates a place where people can freely share their new creations. In addition, as seen in the article 1+1+1=1: The New Math of Mashup by Sasha Frere-Jones, new media and new platforms give people a place to collect tools and media to create new and different things. The article speaks specifically to music mashups, however, the same can be said for still and moving images. There is a treasure trove of open source images that can be used by artists. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2005/01/10/1-1-1-1
I must agree there are many times I wish our school or specific schools in general had a polo resources from the actual students.
