Produktbeschreibung

Following students from different tracks of high school English in a "failing" U.S. public school throughout their first two years in universities, colleges, and jobs, this book employs analytical and methodological tools from new literacy and mobility studies to investigate students' patterns of movement and literacy practices in and across educational institutions, neighborhoods, cultures, and national borders.
