Students Can Purposefully Create Information, Not Just Consume It
Lapp, Diane; Fisher, Douglas; Frey, Nancy; Gonzalez, Alex
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v58 n3 p182-188 Nov 2014
Social media has become adolescents' primary platform for communicating with one another. As a school faculty we wanted to explore our students' ability to contribute new information while being sensitive not to co-opt their out of school literacies for school-based purposes. This article shares how teachers in one urban school redesigned curriculum and instruction to provide experiences that encouraged and supported students as they engaged in the production side of social media.
