Produktbeschreibung
The revised edition of 20 Questions about Youth and the Media is an updated and comprehensive guide to today's most compelling issues in the study of children, tweens, teens and the media. The editors bring together leading experts to answer the kinds of questions an undergraduate student might ask about the relationship between young people and media. In so doing, the book addresses a range of media, from cartoons to the Internet, from advertising to popular music, and from mobile phones to educational television. The diverse array of topics include government regulation, race and gender, effects (both prosocial and risky), kids' use of digital media, and the commercialization of youth culture. This book is designed with the undergraduate youth/children and media classroom in mind, and features accessible writing and end-of-chapter discussion questions and exercises.

Rezensionen
"For youth born digital, 20 Questions about Youth and the Media will be as immersive as a novel. The world's leading scholars compellingly dissect children's media's evolution, disruption and repetition over more than a half-century. Their personal writing styles invite curiosity, then reward it with stimulating questions and exercises that would challenge industry veterans as well as students."-David Kleeman, Children's Media Analyst and Strategist
