MacArthur Foundation
The MacArthur Foundation launched its five-year, $50 million digital media and learning initiative in 2006 to help determine
how digital technologies are changing the way young people learn, play, socialize, and participate in civic life. Answers are
critical to developing educational and other social institutions that can meet the needs of this and future generations. The
initiative is both marshaling what is already known about the field and seeding innovation for continued growth.
