Summary
Technology has changed what it means for
communities to "be together." Digital tools are now part of
most communities' habitats. This book develops a new literacy
and language to describe the practice of stewarding technology
for communities. Whether you want to ground your technology
stewardship in theory and deepen your practice, whether you are
a community leader or sponsor who wants to understand how
communities and technology intersect, or whether you just want
practical advice, this is the book for you. Written by Etienne
Wenger, Nancy White and John D. Smith, the book brings together
conceptual thinking, case studies and offers a guide for
understanding how technology can help a community do what it
wants to do. It gives a glimpse into the future as community
and technology continue to affect and influence each other.
