This paper suggests that by rethinking selfies as both discursive <em>and</em> important material and affective entanglements—a frequent proposal in recent scholarship on this phenomenon—and by redesigning learning resources accordingly, teachers could encourage students to think in a material, affective, embodied, and more complex way about the experiences of sharing images of bodies online.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Language and Literacy}, author={Warfield, Katie}, year={2018}, month={Jul.}, pages={73–88} }
