Composition   ReMix First Edition ©  2006 Catherine G. Latterell Penn State, Altoona Overview Features Table of Contents About the Author(s) Package Options Media & Supplements Testimonials Buy This Book Companion Web Site Exam & Desk Copies Students live in a "remix culture" -- a do-it-yourself, collaborative, and creative culture in which they are the writers, designers, and creators. ReMix brings this creativity to the composition classroom by asking students to investigate the world around them, to question the assumptions behind everyday concepts such as identity, community, and technology, and to compose meaningful verbal and visual texts that speak to the culture they live in. With a mix of humor and analysis, ReMix inspires students to ask: Why do I think the way I do? What is my relationship to the culture around me? Am I truly, as one advertisement claims, "my playlist"? At last, here is a cultural studies reader that students will want to respond to.   “What I like most about ReMix are the various ways in which students are encouraged to assume an active, creative role rather than simply applying the received wisdom of “expert” cultural critique.” — Deborah Kirkman University of Kentucky   ReMix Reading and Composing Culture Paper Text, 848pgs.
