Literacy in the Information Age

Inquiries Into Meaning Making With New Technologies

Bertram C. Bruce, editor

If you are tired of how-to manuals that simply celebrate the many new technologies available for classroom use, this is the book for you. The collection of 32 columns from the Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy examines critical aspects of literacy in the information age, focusing on the complex issues surrounding new learning technologies, such as credibility, access, and privacy.

Educators of elementary-grade through college students will gain a thorough understanding of what new media and tools mean for teaching, learning, and literacy development.
