As they build their own social and digital networks, does that offer new routes to learning and friendship? How do they navigate the meaning of education in a digitally connected but fiercely competitive, highly individualised world? Based upon fieldwork at an ordinary London school, 'The Class' examines young people's experiences of growing up and learning in a digital world. It explores youth values, teenagers' perspectives on their futures, and their tactics for facing the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead Analysis Educational equipment & technology, computer-aided learning (CAL) Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes In English Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed March 18, 2016) Subject Teenagers -- England -- London -- Social conditions Teenagers -- Education -- England -- London Teenagers -- England -- London -- Attitudes Digital media -- Social aspects -- England -- London Information society -- Social aspects -- England -- London Internet and teenagers -- Social aspects -- England -- London Technology and youth -- Social aspects -- England -- London Knowledge, Sociology of. sociology of knowledge.
