ABSTRACT
The research presented here scopes the shape of a common digital language, a bridge across converging spheres of communication and a praxis that transforms raw user-generated content (UGC) into more complete user-generated stories (UGS). Hence this chapter seeks to explore the shape of convergence, in particular the development of digital news models, new praxis and new technologies. Understanding this provides a road map to an online connect for citizens, schools and journalists wishing to participate in online digital media publication.
