Abstract

Young Italian people seem to prefer spending time on innovative features of new technological items rather than to learn traditional subjects studying on textbooks, as it shows their familiarity with communication devices such as mobile phones, MP3, iPOD and socialization environment such as social Web. This paper reports on an active role played by students in the Digital Communication degree of Unimi, to develop e-learning supports both in their university curriculum and in the High-Schools. Creating and maintaining portal websites, forums, LO to be exchanged, and more recently an interactive audio and video portal accessible on mobile and on PC, become learning by doing vehicles to teach new digital technologies and to supplement traditional time & location bounded teaching in classroom. Explanations become available through videos uploaded to our UnimiTube server in the LCAD Research Laboratory, teaching support is implemented by a community effort involving teachers as well.
