«Toby F. Coley’s central and significant argument – of the need for students to reflect on and learn about ethical literacy when writing with digital media – raises important issues for all instructors to consider. Using site-specific examples, Coley shows that ethical issues arise in all phases of teaching and learning with digital media, and he proposes an interesting and helpful curriculum for integrating ethical literacy into a digital composing curriculum.» (Heidi A. McKee, Associate Professor, Miami University)«In the context of the revolution that has been taking place in the creation, use, and dissemination of text in all its forms and purposes, Toby F. Coley’s book offers us a sophisticated and much-needed analysis of the ethical dimensions of digital literacies.» (Chris Anson, Director of the Campus Writing and Speaking Program, North Carolina State University)
