Rhetoric/Composition/Play through Video Games - Reshaping Theory and Practice of Writing (Hardcover)

Video games, contributors to Rhetoric/Composition/Play assume, can be not only productive to play, but can greatly enhance learning--specifically reading, writing, and critical thinking--in myriad ways. The collection explores games as rhetorical objects, as texts equally as sophisticated as their media counterparts (films and books), and as foundations on which a classroom curriculum can be built. Scholars in this volume investigate video games' theoretical and applied dimensions, offering innovative ways to enhance composition-rhetoric scholarship and teaching through the study of games, gamers, and gaming culture.
