2 Citationer (Scopus)

Abstract

Mobile technologies including mobile phones comprise a growing area of research attention with respect to young peoplés digital technology use. In this field of research, a central question is how the mobile practices intersect with study practices, and what kind of new literacy practices the intersection may involve. In March 2012 two focus group interviews were carried out with 8 students from higher education in each group. The aim of the study was to examine whether and how the intersection of the two practices mentioned may create dilemmas for students in their study practices. In this case, literacy practices are understood as the studentś negotiations of thé acceptablé way to perform mobile practice as part of their study practices. The results indicate two kinds of new literacy practices involving mobile phones: ácollaborative practicé and á knowledge enabling practicé.
