The Case of the iPad: Mobile Literacies in Education
暫譯: iPad 案例：教育中的行動素養

本書匯集了一群國際文學研究學者，他們在各種教育環境中研究了行動素養。從多元的理論視角探討行動性，本書對於行動素養，特別是平板電腦在文學研究中的概念化，做出了重要貢獻。本書專注於平板電腦，尤其是 iPad，作為行動素養的主要範例，並將其置於文學與行動性更廣泛的背景中。

本書基於16章的內容，提供了對未來行動素養研究的啟發和指引，這些章節以多種方式探討平板電腦與文學之間的關係。它們共同探討了與技術本身及其所傳遞文本的分佈相關的複雜和多重力量，並考慮了應用程式、成人和兒童如何共同合作，當 iPad 進入構成機構環境的實踐和物質安排的網絡中。
