Description
Understanding Digital Literacies: A Practical Introduction provides a comprehensive introduction to new media literacies. This book equips students with the theoretical and analytical tools to explore the linguistic dimensions and social impact of digital literacy practices. Each chapter covers a different topic, presenting an overview of major concepts, issues, problems, and debates, while encouraging students to reflect on and critically evaluate their own language and communication practices. The second edition features expanded coverage of diverse digital media practices, including Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Tinder, and WhatsApp, as well as two new chapters on mobility and materiality, and surveillance and privacy. The book includes updated activities to engage students in reflecting on and analysing their own media use, along with e-resources featuring a glossary of key terms and supplementary material. This textbook is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying courses in new media and digital literacies.
