English Journal Volume 93, Number 3, January 2004
Issue theme: Popular Culture How do you help students to become critical participants in society, examining not just how popular culture reflects values but also shapes them? How do you incorporate elements of popular culture when you are studying a classic text? The authors in this issue recognize that a willingness to learn with and from your students is essential to teaching popular culture, and they provide a variety of resources that will help you show your students that studying popular culture is vital to our understanding of who we are and who we wish to be.
