Arts, Media, and Justice: Multimodal Explorations with Youth by Lalitha VasudevanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I read this book for one of the Red Clay Writing Project Summer Institute book groups and found it helpful for both my research and teaching interests. I have a better understanding of concepts surrounding image theory and photography as a result of reading this text, which carries over into my passion for comics and graphic novels. I also learned a lot about the benefits of using fan fiction and social media in classroom settings, particularly those involving writing. Because of my drama background, I also appreciated the theater chapters, although I thought they got a little bit repetitive toward the end. Overall, I was impressed with the book and hope K-12 teachers and university professors alike will read it. I can't wait to hear what the rest of my book group thought of it. These topics of arts education and social justice are so important and timely.
