Critical Frameworks in Adolescent Literacy Motivation and Engagement: How we got here and where we’re going
Wed, November 30, 10:30am to 12:00pm, Omni Nashville, Floor: Level 3, Cumberland 3Session Submission Type: Symposium
Abstract
We explore, clarify, and complicate the terms “motivation” and “engagement” in literacy research journals. We seek to understand how these constructs have changed over the past century so that we might be best prepared to mobilize our research in the future. We organize this symposium around five presentations based on a multi-person, multi-site review of adolescent literacy research aimed at specific audiences.
