“Reminder about moving away from text”
“4 principles of new media”
“That I’m probably more familiar with new media than I imagined.”
“Loved the 3 action steps & the question…when was the last time you learnt something completely new.? We all need to enrich ourselves in order to grow & develop regardless of our stage in life.”
“That new media is visual, not just print”
“The concept of conversation rather than commercial.”
“The reverse mentoring – I talk to my daughter about things, but now I can see our discussions in new light.”
“New media principles and key actions”
“Get a reverse mentor”
“Quantity not quality”
“I learned there is so much I didn’t know that I didn’t know! So hard to keep abreast of all the latest technology – thanks for sharing so generously Gihan”
