Drawing on qualitative research with young people, the study examines how adolescents engage with social media as a primary source of news, political information, and identity exploration. Rather than positioning youth as passive consumers or victims of misinformation, this research highlights the nuanced, strategic, and emotionally complex ways young people interpret, evaluate, and incorporate digital content into their developing civic and personal identities. \n \nThe session will explore how algorithms, peer networks, and platform affordances shape meaning-making processes, and what this means for educators seeking to support critical digital literacy and civic engagement. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of adolescents' lived digital experiences and practical considerations for classroom instruction in an era where identity formation and political learning increasingly unfold online. \n \nPresenter: \nDr. Rachel Besharat Mann, Associate Professor of the Practice of Education Studies, College of Education Studies, Weslyan University \n \n \n\n\nVirtual Location URL: https://ucf.zoom.us/meeting/register/M4irHkrsRFuDBSm-xxP1aA\nRegistration Link: https://ucf.zoom.us/meeting/register/M4irHkrsRFuDBSm-xxP1aA\nRegistration Info: Register in advance for this meeting.
