[Air-L] Now Available: Kids on YouTube

[Patricia Lange]

Dear Colleagues,
 
Following others’ leads, I’m announcing the publication of my
new book, Kids on YouTube: Technical Identities and Digital Literacies (Left
Coast Press, 2014). If you’d like to write a review let me know! The book
describes what kids learn (and what they don’t) when they hang out on the ‘Tube.
Please feel free to pass along to interested colleagues!
