Digital Girls Site

Enjoyed this quote from the Digital Girls Site:

"....Conversely, girls’ computer play, on and off the Internet, is often seen as reproducing established gender stereotypes of fashion doll play, shopping, chatting and providing girls with knowledge of no apparent value"

If we're advocating for a new literacy, perhaps we should take these interests and use them in the ELA classroom? I wonder what that'd look like...
