Abstract
In the age of digital media, to understand 'digital youth' becomes a task of growing importance for academics and educators. This current issue of Beijing International Review of Education (bire) brings together contributions from a group of international scholars to discuss the usage of mobile phones, computers, iPads and the Internet among young people in their daily life, which suggests possible directions to improve education for the younger generation. Based on a review of relevant literature and collected papers of the special issue, this introduction shares some of our responses to the questions referring to the digital changes of young people's identities, cultures, lifestyles, learning patterns, ways of socialisation and public engagement. It argues that future education innovation must pay attention to a spatiotemporal and sociocultural complexity of young people's living, learning and literacy in the digital age, which needs a new philosophy of education for the digital youth.
