Adolescents Online Literacies
Connecting Classrooms, Digital Media, and Popular Culture Revised edition
About This Book
This revised edition of Adolescents' Online Literacies: Connecting Classrooms, Digital Media, and Popular Culture features a variety of digital tools for humanizing pedagogy. For example, the book examines numerous artistic representations of young people's self-selected graphic novels and fan fiction as part of an in-class multi-genre unit on fandom. This edition makes concrete connections between what the research portrays and what teachers, school librarians, and school media specialists know to be the case in their interactions with young people at the middle and high school level. The contributors of these chapters â educators, consultants, and researchers who span two continents â focus on ways to incorporate and use the digital literacies that young people bring to school.
