Craig Watkins skillfully draws from more than 500 surveys and 350 in-depth interviews with young people, parents, and educators to understand how a digital lifestyle is affecting the ways youth learn, play, bond, and communicate. Timely and deeply relevant, the book covers the influence of MySpace and Facebook, the growing appetite for "anytime, anywhere" media and "fast entertainment," how online "digital gates" reinforce race and class divisions, and how technology is transforming America's classrooms. Watkins also debunks popular myths surrounding cyberpredators, Internet addiction, and social isolation. The result is a fascinating portrait, both celebratory and wary, about the coming of age of the first fully wired generation.  606 $aMass media and youth$zUnited States 606 $aTechnology and youth$zUnited States 606 $aDigital media$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aTeenagers$xSocial networks$zUnited States 606 $aInternet$xSocial aspects 606 $aOnline social networks$zUnited States 615 0$aMass media and youth 615 0$aTechnology and youth 615 0$aDigital media$xSocial aspects 615 0$aTeenagers$xSocial networks 615 0$aInternet$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aOnline social networks 676 $a303.48/3308350973 700 $aWatkins$b S.
