I want to focus my literature review on the impact video game design might have on students' development of digital literacies.
My guiding question is:
How do video games support the development of digital literacies?
The list of sources I plan to use are:

Excellent! I'm really looking forward reading to this!
ReplyDeleteThe first section of your literature review should be an attempt to define what you mean by digital literacies and new literacies. There is not a agreed upon definition so feel free to define the difference yourself based on what you read. Have fun with that! :)
