Description

This collection reimagines the study of English and media by exploring how people engage with reading, watching, making, and listening in their everyday lives. By working across boundaries, the authors create a reflexive, critical space for studying our social and cultural interactions.

The book presents applicable learning and teaching strategies that combine artworks, films, social practices, creativity, 'viral' media, theater, TV, social media, videogames, and literature to promote progressive textual education. This approach is free from outdated ideas about textual categories and value, making it a valuable resource for educators.

By reclaiming the study of English and media as an integrated field, this book offers a fresh perspective on how we can learn and teach in a more effective way. Its innovative strategies are designed to help students engage with their own textual lives in a more meaningful and critical way.
