Media@看片视频, in collaboration with the Canada Research Chair in Technology and Citizenship, is pleased to present Lisa de Wilde from TVOntario.
The theme of Lisa's remarks will be "Increasing the impact of public broadcasting in the emerging media environment." This theme is developed around some questions found on the Media@看片视频's site: "Is the culture of technology a culture of citizenship?" And "How can media practitioners and users collaborate to promote citizenship?" 聽
According to De Wilde, these questions are fundamental to TVO's existence, and she will be highlighting some of the innovative ways they are impacting the people of Ontario through digital media.
As Darin Barney (Canada Research Chair in Technology and Citizenship)
says: "Lisa de Wilde is one of the most forward-looking broadcasting executives in Canada. Under her leadership, TVOntario has set new standards for public interest broadcasting, and for creative and dynamic adaptation to the emerging media environment. Few people have thought as clearly about the challenges and opportunities facing public broadcasting as Lisa de Wilde. This is a unique opportunity for scholars of broadcasting, communication policy and emerging media to engage with a leader in the field."
