Venice Arts captured young people’s curiosity and interests in the Internet, digital media, and technology to build quality programs that help them succeed academically and vocationally and engage them in critical thinking, learning and creativity. A central component to our strategy was BeyondMySpace.org, a web-based learning and social networking environment that allows youth to interact with others through their art and creativity. Use of this website and digital learning module mitigate factors of access, understanding, and relevance that may influence youth’s interest in information and communication technologies.
