[Air-L] DVDs for teaching internet/new media studies

[Rybas, Natalia]

Great question, thanks for asking! 

I have these PBS documentaries on my list. They can be watched from the PBS web site. For example:

Digital Nation: http://video.pbs.org/video/1402987791/
Growing Up Online: http://video.pbs.org/video/1082076027/

There are others if you click on Topics menu and choose Technology.

Does anyone have any suggestions for recent DVDs that could be used in teaching internet studies or new media studies classes?  There are a few that I use ("IRL," "Virtual Worlds: Inside Online Games," aka "Avatars Online"... I think that's right) that are getting a bit dated, although are still great.  I am coming up with a list of more recent ones for my university's library to order.  Thanks in advance!
