Presenting pedagogical strategies as well as practical research and applications of digital media in various aspects of culture, society, and education, this publication is an ideal reference source for researchers, educators, graduate-level students, and media specialists.

Scholars of communication, information, education, and other disciplines make a case that media literacy education in the digital age is crucial, especially in a globally connected world. Among their topics are pedagogical approaches to media literacy education in the US, creating global classrooms using universal design for learning, using media literacy to teach and learn the English language arts: common core state standards, pedagogical guidelines to introduce transmedia learning into the classroom: the Brazilian context, and methods and strategies for using digital literacy in media and the arts.
