Learning the Virtual Life: Public Pedagogy in a Digital World by Trifonas, P. P. (Ed.)Call Number: LB1044.87 .L4385 2012 (Library North 4)
While some have welcomed the educational challenges of digital culture and emphasized its possibilities for individual emancipation and social transformation in the new information age, others accuse digital culture of absorbing its recipients in an all-pervasive virtual world. This book presents a neutral, advanced introduction to the key issues involved with the integration of digital culture and education. This edited collection presents international perspectives on a wide range of issues, and each chapter combines upper-level theory with "real-world" practice, making this essential reading for all those interested in digital media and education.
