Abstract

This paper offers a cultural-historical explanation for the large gap that has developed between the home and school experiences of young people of multimedia and other technologies. Multimedia developers now face a choice of creating instructional systems which are boring and irrelevant to learners, or to step into their world, and transfer to them the skills and tools to allow them to become either co-creators of their own knowledge, or creators of customisable, collaborative and autocatalytic learning worlds for themselves and others to experience.
