Summary

Harry Potter and the Young Scholars is an academic presentation for young scholars (and Harry Potter fans!) who range between the ages of 6-18 years. This presentation demonstrates how fandom research can be studied at any age by implementing hands-on, factual material to young scholars who are curious about cultural studies concerning topics they love, like Harry Potter. Topics such as Harry Potter facts, fan-induced tourism, and viral Harry Potter memes and online culture are discussed.
