Opportunities for iTeam contributions

In Born Digital, Palfrey and Gasser identify several constituencies and suggest some steps that they can take to address the issues raised in their work. In our iTeams work, students can contribute as they describe here:

In terms of the opportunities that we pointed to - for innovation, learning, and activism - Digital Natives just need to do the things we've seen a few of them doing, to spread the word virally among their peers as to what's possible. We've pointed to examples of a few extraordinary young people doing very cool things. The real promise lies in whether these few will become many. (Palfrey and Gasser, 2008 p. 278-279)
