Kenneth W. Moffett and Laurie L. Rice find that online forms of political participation--like friending or following candidates and groups as well as blogging or tweeting about politics--draw in a broader swathe of young adults than might ordinarily participate. Political scientists have traditionally determined that participatory patterns among the general public hold less sway in shaping civic activity among college students. This book, however, recognizes that young adults' political participation requires looking at their online activities and the ways in which these help mobilize young adults to participate via other forms. Moffett and Rice discover that engaging in one online participatory form usually begets other forms of civic activity, either online or offline. 410 0$aLexington studies in political communication. 606 $aCollege students$xPolitical activity 606 $aEducation, Higher$xEffect of technological innovations on 615 0$aCollege students$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xEffect of technological innovations on. 676 $a320.0835 700 $aMoffett$b Kenneth W.$01560807 702 $aRice$b Laurie L. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798957003321 996 $aWeb 2.0 and the political mobilization of college students$93827038 997 $aUNINA
