Across subcultures and geographies, young fans have found each other and formed community online, learning from one another along the way. From these and other in-depth case studies of online affinity networks, Affinity Online considers how young people have found new opportunities for expanded learning in the digital age. These cases reveal the shared characteristics and unique cultures and practices of different online affinity networks, and how they support ?connected learning??learning that brings together youth interests, social activity, and accomplishment in civic, academic, and career relevant arenas. Although involvement in online communities is an established fixture of growing up in the networked age, participation in these spaces show how young people are actively taking up new media for their own engaged learning and social development.While providing a wealth of positive examples for how the online world provides new opportunities for learning, the book also examines the ways in which these communities still reproduce inequalities based on gender, race, and socioeconomic status. The book concludes with a set of concrete suggestions for how the positive learning opportunities offered by online communities could be made available to more young people, at school and at home. Affinity Online explores how online practices and networks bridge the divide between in-school and out-of-school learning, finding that online affinity networks are creating new spaces of opportunity for realizing the ideals of connected learning. 606 $aYouth$xSocial networks$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01183540 606 $aOnline social networks$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01741311 606 $aInternet in education$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00977246 606 $aEducation$xEffect of technological innovations on$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00902618 606 $aInternet in education$vCase studies 606 $aEducation$xEffect of technological innovations on$vCase studies 606 $aYouth$xSocial networks$vCase studies 606 $aOnline social networks$vCase studies 608 $aCase studies. 615 7$aYouth$xSocial networks. 615 7$aOnline social networks. 615 7$aInternet in education. 615 7$aEducation$xEffect of technological innovations on. 615 0$aInternet in education 615 0$aEducation$xEffect of technological innovations on 615 0$aYouth$xSocial networks 615 0$aOnline social networks 676 $a302.30285 700 $aIto?$b Mizuko$0928219 702 $aMartin$b Crystle$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aPfister$b Rachel Cody$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aSalen$b Katie$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aWortman$b Amanda$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910627222103321 996 $aAffinity Online$92968451 997 $aUNINA
