Short Description

Youths’ social capital can affect their college aspirations and decisions. Social media can serve as a bridging social capital, enabling youths to access and network with a broader range of people. Using the Networked Knowledge Activities framework, the study examined how youths collect, share, curate, broker, negotiate, and construct knowledge about college on YouTube. Based on the findings, some instructional and administrative suggestions have been discussed.
