Streaming Readers: Educational Potentials of Reader Representations in Highschool Dramas
Start a new DMP in Loading
In popular Netflix series like Heartstopper, Ginny & Georgia, and Sex Education, reading is prominently featured. This project therefore investigates the potential these series offer for promoting literacy in educational contexts. To this end, a media-semiotic analysis of reading characters in high school series is conducted. Subsequently, relevant scenes from the analyzed material are presented to focus groups of teachers and students from secondary education. By closely combining cultural studies and education-oriented research, the project aims not only to push boundaries in the study of reading culture but also to provide implementable insights for literacy education.
