Do it yourself

Does "do it yourself" really do it yourself in the cyberworld? No, it rarely does says Henry Jenkins. Most of the information learned about the media and its functions is learned through social learning. This is word of mouth or recommendation from experiences from someone else. Someone of the information is acquired through a instruction manual or video from other users or the creator them self. This points out that social learning is a very helpful tool in passing information in the digital world. Without the assistance or help of others with previous experience many of the challenges within the digital world would be overwhelming. In every aspect prior knowledge or experience has help those in the future to advance even further.
