商品簡介
Alverman (language and literacy education, U. of Georgia) brings together 10 essays by scholars of education, technology, and media from the US, UK, Australia, and Canada who discuss the use of digital literacies like blogging, gaming, and social networking to make classroom learning more relevant to adolescents. They also discuss virtual worlds, MySpace, online zines, hip hop texts, and how these relate to teens' offline worlds, and how teachers can connect them to the classroom, as well as teacher perspectives and awareness of online literacy.
