Session Submission Type: Symposium
Making has been a central part of education, perhaps more visible in elementary schools, in which children learn by doing, playing, and building (e.g., Montessori, 1912; Reggio Emilia). The title of this symposium, “Making Literacies that are Critical,” is about the act of making in literacies, creating spaces for critical responses to social issues, and retheorizing the role that making plays in designing and thinking through engagement in critical curriculum
