What's the Rap? Thinking Critically about Citation Practices Given the Rise of Hip-Hop
Sciullo, Nick
International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, Paper presented at the International Conference on Humanities, Social and Education Sciences (iHSES) (Washington, D.C., Jul 15-19, 2020)
Hip-hop offers opportunities to rethink citation and argument. Hip-hop's melding with digital media means that students and scholars alike must keep abreast of citation style changes and continually investigate what counts as evidence in the classroom. This involves considering the ways in which popular culture, namely hip-hop, can help students learn about notions of truth and evidence. Further, hip-hop's ready use of wordplay encourages constant critical inquiry into issues of truthfulness, authenticity, and evidence. Thus, hip-hop offers exciting opportunities to investigate citation and argument in the classroom, even though hip-hop is open to critique. [For the full proceedings, see ED626375.]
