Overview

With a mix of humor and analysis, a collection of fresh readings, lively assignments, and an enticing design, ""ReMix ""is not your ordinary textbook. It asks students to re-examine everyday concepts (such as identity, entertainment, and technology); to question assumptions about everyday life and culture; and to respond critically and creatively to some of the most imaginative projects you ll find in a composition reader. Built on the idea that students live in a do-it-yourself world in which they are the writers, designers, and inventors, ""ReMix ""invites students to bring their own creativity into the composition classroom. It inspires them to ask: Why do I think the way I do? What is my relationship to the culture around me? Am I truly, as one advertisement claims, ""my playlist""? This question-posing approach allows students to write about culture and identity in a meaningful way.""
