Literacies of Refusal: Thinking Otherwise in the Wake of Scientism
Fri, December 6, 1:15 to 2:45pm, Westin Peachtree Plaza, Augusta BSession Submission Type: Symposium
Abstract
Within a context of contemporary social, political and curricular constraints on literacy, this symposium invites scholarship employing alternative modes of knowledge production to present otherwise ways of knowing/being/doing. We invite participants to trouble dehumanizing accounts of literacy research and practice that privilege a narrow view of science, forward conservative notions of appropriateness, and exclude in/human agents.
