Product Description
This new text examines how students are communicating and creating culture through blogs, MySpace pages, texting, and other high-tech means of expression. Alberti engages student interest and provides tools for students to more effectively analyze texts of all sorts. Intriguing writing projects improve text communication, writing, and presentation skills. Unlike other pop culture readers that focus exclusively on U.S. culture, Text Messaging recognizes that these forms of pop culture are global in scope, so individuals can and do interact with diverse cultures from around the world. |
