Building the future: communication camps—the real utopia!

Abstract

SUMMARY The most important skills of the future would be communication skills-that is why communication camps for children and youngsters are implemented. The camp is more than mere media technology, it is a way of living and learning together. At the camp, children take part in five activities: press, video, radio, telecommunications and catering. The theory behind the activities stresses such constructs as interaction, non-hierarchy, cultural change, equal rights, internal luxury and media literacy. The main goal of the camp is to educate children (and adults) to be active builders of the future who work for a tetter interactively-communicative world.
