Session Submission Summary

Imagining Beyond the Domesticated “New”: Creative Remixings of Literacies, Community, and Place

Fri, December 4, 8:45 to 10:15am, Coastal Events Center, Executive Learning Center, Lower Level

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

This interactive symposium presents alternatives to technicist and school-centric orientations to “new literacies” by examining creative implementations of literacy and digital technologies in a range of education-relevant spheres. Across these distinct contexts--formal and informal spaces, teacher education settings, and inservice teacher learning--there is shared emphasis on creative, user-driven approaches to technology use. Each paper also explores a unique aspect of how such user-driven approaches can both afford and constrain opportunities for equitable participation.
