Abstract

Threaded together through the notion of “literacies in contested spaces,” this symposium presents papers that explore various dimensions of literacy practices relevant to the current discourse on youth, teacher preparation, urban communities, and classroom practice. The presented research seeks to ground, explore, and expand what multivocal, multilingual, multimodal, and multicultural means in teacher education research and provide examples of theoretical, methodological, and classroom practice models that advance innovation in practice and policy that can inform quality teaching.
