    Fascinating bi-modality in charts of social media use by young Europeans via @GrahamAttwell

    European survey data on how young people are using social media.
    via pontydysgu.org

    Either they use it or they don't. Not much middle ground. 25% use the Internet more than 20 hours a week; 30% less than 5 hours. Well, it is more complex than that, of course, but even stronger bimodality is showm with IM. Not sure about the typology of users, but the implications for teaching are challenging. Who do you teach to? Should teachers and institutions adopt one modality? Or, the other? Aim for the middle and hit no-one?
