[223]-245) and index. Book News Annotation: In refuting the extremes of, on the one hand, moral panics about the negative influence of media on children, and, on the other, the overreaching optimism of the 'electronic generation,' Buckingham (education, U. of London) examines the challenges of new technologies, the privatization of the media and of public space, and the polarization between the media-rich and the media-poor. He argues that children can no longer be excluded or protected from the adult world of violence, commercialism, and politics, and that new strategies and policies are needed to protect children's rights as citizens and consumers. Buckingham addresses the relationship between children and the media by focusing on both the changing patterns of media and the changing nature of childhood. Annotation c.

Fort Bragg, CA: The Small Press, 1991.

FROM THE PUBLISHER Revised by a team of college students under the direction of Bernard McGrane, this edition of an underground classic marks out new territory in college participatory education. Its purpose remains the same: to encourage students to educate themselves by calling their attention to the college experience as a whole: the personal, social, intellectual, and spiritual demands and opportunities presented by college life. In a personable and refreshingly straightforward style, Bell and McGrane's critical discussion of academic life distinguishes between learning the institutional rules of higher education and internalizing those rules, demystifies professors and teaching assistants by discussing their institutional roles and incentives, and invites students to take responsibility for - and make the most of - their educational experiences.. Second, Revised. Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

St. Paul, MN: Graywolf Press, 1988. Near Fine Cover bright, minor shelfwear mainly to extremities Pages clean bright tight, slight corner curl first few pages, edges very lt soil <br></br>Product Description:<br> The issue of cultural literacy has been the subject of intense debate in the past two years. Several bestselling books about the deficiencies of our educational system as well as changes in basic curriculum at more than one major university have contributed to the fervor of this debate. <br></br> Fueling the national controversy is the question of what body of knowledge constitutes cultural literacy. While many argue for a return to a "back to basics" curriculum, equally energetic voices suggest a revised curriculum, one which embraces both traditional western classics and the classics of non-European cultures, among them African, Asian, and Latin American. <br></br> This volume brings together thirteen essays which suggest the range of knowledge truly literate individuals need to possess. Essays by such writers as James Baldwin, Carlos Fuentes, Michelle Cliff, Paula Gunn Allen, Ishmael Reed, and Wendell Berry enlarge our perspective to include a variety of voices and heritages which contribute to the vibrant culture of the United States. Also included is a beginning list of names, places, dates, and concepts which are part and parcel of a multi-cultural fabric. . First Edition. Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
