Professional identity construction in digital times. E-book. Formato PDF.  The book provides considerations, discussions and empirical research-based evidence about profes­sional identity in the digital age and contempo­rary society. It discusses a conceptual framework of pro­fessional identity construction based on the sociological perspective of Symbolic Interactionism, and examines theoretical and empirical topics on virtual profession­al identities of Millennials and Generation X, entangled and disentangled online interactions, construction of professional passion in digital times, adult self-regulat­ed learning, and relationship between profession, work, Self, and social media. It shares empirical and conceptual research-based findings of the forms of mediated narra­tives, including the effects of these practices on different social media audience. This book, more current than ever, is conceived for a target of public composed not only by students and young scholars, but by anyone who is in­terested in contemporary society and identity: its dual distribution (both in Italy and abroad) designs it as an in-depth analysis of contemporary processes.
