Reviews

"""Korina M. Jocson synthesizes her work in an impressive piece of scholarship that helps us see how youth media production experiences support adolescent development, enhance learning in the content areas, promote creativity and self-expression, and advance appreciation for democratic practices of self-governance and civic engagement. She is a talented writer, and her clear, accessible prose is matched by considerable strength as a theorist.""—Renee Hobbs, author of Discovering Media Literacy: Digital Media and Popular Culture in Elementary School"
