Beyond Youth Voice: Transforming Adults, Youth, and Systems for Inclusive Social Change
Angela Booker is currently studying ways youth, families, and schools make use of media and technology for participation, learning, and community development. She is particularly concerned with addressing barriers that diminish access to public participation among underrepresented and disenfranchised communities. She uses ethnographic, qualitative, and design-based research methods to examine typical and emerging practices where youth and adults work together (and at times, in conflict). Collaborations with youth, community partners, educators, and scholars form the basis of her work. She is an assistant professor in the Department of Communication at UC San Diego.
