Personal Statement

I have dedicated much of my work to children, youth, media and Internet. I have been interested in exploring how young people make sense of their surrounding communication and cultural environments. I believe the cognitive, technical and ethical dimensions of digital media literacy today warrant critical concern, specifically in relation to policy and arts based pedagogical interventions. The voices of young people captivate my curiosity and their digital participatory cultures intertwined with opportunities and risks as they weave stories and images are important realms of research and action that need to engaged creatively in the quest of building knowledge producing communities.
