Young people spend a significant amount of time with technology,
particularly digital and social media. How do they experience and
cope with the many influences of digital media in their lives? What
are the main challenges and opportunities they navigate in living
online? Youth in the Digital Age provides answers from a decidedly
interdisciplinary perspective, beginning in a framework steeped in
context; biography; and societal influences on young people, who
now make up 25% of the earth's population. Placing these
perspectives alongside those of current scholars and commentators
to help analyse what young people are up against in navigating the
digital age, the volume also draws on data from a five-year
research project (Digital Media and Young Lives). Topics explored
include well-being, privacy, control, surveillance, digital
capital, and social relationships. Based on unique and emergent
research from Canada, Scotland, and Australia, Youth in the Digital
Age will appeal to post-secondary educators and scholars interested
in fields such as youth studies, education, media studies, mental
health, and technology.
