The influence of Shakespeare on American culture is unequivocal.
And despite its youth, young adult literature has grown into a
literary force majeure. Considering the widespread popularity of
both Shakespeare and young adult literature, their pairing can
offer teachers and students a wide array of instructional
possibilities. Our collection offers secondary (6-12) educators
engaging ideas and approaches for pairing Shakespeare's most
frequently taught plays alongside young adult novels which often
provide a unique examination of a topic that teaching a single text
could not afford. The pairings offered in each chapter allow for
comparisons in some cases, for extensions in others, and for
critique in some.

In the last decade alone, the world has changed in seismic ways as
marriage equality has been ruled on by the supreme court, social
justice issues such as #metoo and BlackLivesMatter have arisen, and
issues of immigration and deportation have come to the forefront of
politics across the globe. Thus, there is a need for an updated
text that shares strategies for combining canonical and young adult
literature that reflects the changes society has - and continues to
- experience. The purpose of our collection is to offer secondary
(6-12) teachers engaging ideas and approaches for pairing young
adult and canonical novels to provide unique examinations of topics
that teaching either text in isolation could not afford. Our
collection does not center canonical texts and most chapters show
how both texts complement each other rather than the young adult
text being only an extension of the canonical. Within each volume,
the chapters are organized chronologically according to the
publication date of the canonical text. The pairings offered in
this collection allow for comparisons in some cases, for extensions
in others, and for critique in all.

The world of middle level education is rapidly evolving.
Increasingly, online learning platforms are complementing or
replacing traditional classroom settings. As students exchange
classroom interaction for online collaboration, pencils for
keyboards, face-to-face conversations for chat room texts, and
traditional lessons for digital modules, it becomes apparent that
teachers, schools, and administrators must identify ways to keep
pace. We must identify ways to meet the needs of middle level
learners within this digital context. In this volume, researchers
and teachers share a variety of resources centered on the growing
world of virtual education and its implications for the middle
level learner, educator, and classroom.
