Beyond the app generation. 330 $aNo one has failed to notice that the current generation of youth is deeply-some would say totally-involved with digital media. Professors Howard Gardner and Katie Davis name today's young people The App Generation, and in this spellbinding book they explore what it means to be "app-dependent" versus "app-enabled" and how life for this generation differs from life before the digital era. Gardner and Davis are concerned with three vital areas of adolescent life: identity, intimacy, and imagination. Through innovative research, including interviews of young people, focus groups of those who work with them, and a unique comparison of youthful artistic productions before and after the digital revolution, the authors uncover the drawbacks of apps: they may foreclose a sense of identity, encourage superficial relations with others, and stunt creative imagination. On the other hand, the benefits of apps are equally striking: they can promote a strong sense of identity, allow deep relationships, and stimulate creativity. The challenge is to venture beyond the ways that apps are designed to be used, Gardner and Davis conclude, and they suggest how the power of apps can be a springboard to greater creativity and higher aspirations. 606 $aInternet and youth 606 $aYouth 606 $aTechnology and youth 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) 606 $aCreative ability in adolescence 606 $aApplication software 615 0$aInternet and youth. 615 0$aYouth. 615 0$aTechnology and youth. 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology) 615 0$aCreative ability in adolescence. 615 0$aApplication software. 676 $a004.67/80835 686 $aPSY004000$aSOC047000$aSOC052000$aTEC052000$2bisacsh 700 $aGardner$b Howard$066382 701 $aDavis$b Katie$c(Assistant professor)$01808434 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974975003321 996 $aThe app generation$94358667 997 $aUNINA
