Adolescents World Literature Multiple Literacies Reading Assignments Reading Interests Books Reading Material Selection Adolescent Literature Student Participation Inquiry Literacy Education Educational Technology Since 2009, the author has been using an activity that she calls "book tasting" to help teens select books for independent reading assignments. While she is sure she is not the first to do this kind of activity, the term "book tasting" seems to appeal to the teens. Book tasting has been extremely successful in pairing up students with texts that speak to their interests. The author's primary teaching partner in book tasting has been Susan Lester and her 10th grade Honors World Literature/Composition students. Susan and her class have been part of the Media 21 cohort, an approach to participatory learning that emphasizes an inquiry stance on learning and multiple literacies. In conclusion, everyone in the Media 21 learning community was happy with the way the book tasting played out. Students had room for choice, discovery, and exploration without any organizational structures that were overly fussy or complicated. While the author implemented this activity with teen readers, it can easily be adapted to any age group or library setting. (Contains 2 figures.)
