Researching New Literacies, Learning and Everyday Life. Traditional Game Play and the Digital. A friend on my Facebook filmed herself involved in a strange ritual involving a plastic cup and some clapping. I watched it several times and then posted a comment to ask what it was all about.

Aug 23rd, 2012. For the past year, I have been studying adolescent literacy and fan culture. I am interested in how online affinity spaces shape the way in which young people read and respond. To young adult literature, such as. Around the world, fans are writing. An online choose-your-own adventure story, is a great example of how young fans are engaging in writing and remixing.
