Session Submission Summary

Mobilizing Literacies for Transcultural and Cosmopolitan Transformations

Fri, December 2, 3:00 to 4:30pm, Omni Nashville, Floor: Level 2, Broadway Ballroom K

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

Presenters consider the notion of mobility and what it means to research in local and global spaces. Presenters have examined how children and young people use language, texts, and other modalities to connect with social and cultural contexts. The symposium will demonstrate that students are able to draw on multilingual repertoires and dual frames of reference, and they can make meaning from their experiences of migration, transnationalism, and literacy practices in creative and subversive ways.
