South India: YouTube - Edutainment
This video from our South Indian fieldsite combines three cases to show how learning is acquired through entertaining videos on Youtube.
Case one is that of a young school girl who learns dance moves (Bollywood) from Youtube by accessing it on a television for a performance at a local event.
Case two is that of a college graduate who learns short film making by watching short films and film makers on Youtube.
Case three is that of a school dropout who learns about using smart phones through instruction videos on Youtube.
This short documentary film was made as part of the UCL Global Social Media Impact Study (). Funded by the European Research Council (ERC Project 2011-AdG-295486).
