Recent shifts in new literacy studies have expanded definitions of
text, reading/viewing, and literacy itself. The inclusion of
non-traditional media forms is essential, as texts beyond written
words, images, or movement across a screen are becoming ever more
prominent in media studies. Included in such non-print texts are
interactive media forms like computer or video games that can be
understood in similar, though distinct, terms as texts that are
read by their users. This book examines how people are socially,
culturally, and personally changing as a result of their reading
of, or interaction with, these texts. This work explores the
concept of ergodic ontogeny: the mental development resulting from
interactive digital media play experiences causing change in
personal identity.
