Summary:
This collection of ten critical essays examines several intersections in new information technology and pedagogy, considering both the challenges and opportunities they afford. The essays are organized into three major sections that focus on how digital teaching is "disruptive by design," how to teachers themselves are trained in teaching and themselves being digitally literate, and resisting dominant narratives that reduce the development of digital literacy to terms of market-literacy. Specific essays include "Designing Space for Student Choice in a Digital Media Studies Classroom," "Beyond Technology Skills: toward a framework for critical digital literacies in pre-service technology education," and "Hacker Literacies: user-generated resistance and reconfiguration of networked publics." The contributors are American professors of communication, English and education. This text is not indexed. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
