contents The Cultural Commons of Teen Literacy Kimmel, Sue C. Dickinson, Gail K. Doll, Carol A. Adolescents Information Literacy Behavior Social Media Internet Telecommunications Handheld Devices While we have placed an emphasis on identifying the skills we should teach teenagers to become information literate (Standards for the 21st century learner, American Association of School Librarians/American Library Association, 2007), there is a gap in our understanding of what literacies teens immersed in an age of unfiltered Internet, cell phones, and social media, already possess. In this study, we looked at teen behaviors in public spaces outside of school. Twenty-one students who were enrolled in a graduate school library course were asked to unobtrusively observe teens in various public locations outside of school. This study analyzed those "snapshots" to uncover patterns regarding teen behaviors. Results present new findings on how teens communicate with each other and the world around them.
