We recently made a video case study of some of our pilot work at Somerville High School. This video profiles Craig Leach, who conducted the Axis of Media Ethics lesson from the Digital Media and Ethics casebook, Our Space, that NML developed with Harvard's GoodPlay Project last year.

Our goal with sharing this with you is to encourage you to use the resources we have available and create dialogue around what works, what doesn't work and how we can collaborate to improve the material.

At Project New Media Literacies, we're collaborating with Harvard's GoodPlay Project on an ethics casebook to address the special ethical issues that arise in the online world. GoodPlay has identified five different ethical areas, but at the moment, we are working on activities that explore credibility and how it is assessed and developed online.

So, the first thing we have to think about is what makes the online world different from the offline world? More specifically, what differences are there that change the way credibility works? One possible answer: the online world is hyper-networked.
