Adolescents New Literacies with and through Mobile Phones (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This book provides a deeper understanding of the phone-based composing practices of youth and their implications for literacy learning. In the United States, smartphone use among teens is nearly universal, yet many adolescents who are avid digital composers still struggle with formal schooled literacy. The widespread and rapid embrace of smartphones by youth from all income levels has had a substantial impact on the way that young people approach the act of composing, yet to date, little-to-no work has explored digital photography and text curation-through popular apps like Twitter and Instagram-and their impact on literacy, including formal schooled literacy. This book examines these developing aspects of mobile technology and education and, as more schools move to Bring Your Own Device models and lift classroom bans on cellphones, provides classroom teachers with the needed information about the affordances of phones for formal literacy learning.
