Reviews

In this fascinating book, Jennifer Rowsell and Mary P. Sheridan push the study of digital media into new territory. By focusing on the producers, whose practices are explored through illuminative case studies, we are introduced to the processes they value and the attitudes of mind they inhabit. Educators at all levels will be challenged by the underlying question of how we might be able to design literacy and learning environments based on an architecture of participation. The book provides practical and theoretical insights that will make it a key text for students and researchers in literacy and media studies. Guy Merchant, Sheffield Hallam University, UK. Design Literacies provides stories of digital media producers that may well serve to transform the pedagogy of those of us deeply committed to work in digital media. Danielle Devoss, Michigan State University '... it is their clear vision for the educational system that makes their book so stimulating.' - Written Language & Literacy
