Literacies

Exploring themes of cultural, political, and historical significance, this collection of sixteen essays spans a range of topics from functional literacy and the politics of literacy in Nicaragua to critical literacy and digital practices. Organized into four sections, it addresses the empowerment through literacy, the impact of new capitalism, and the evolution of online communities. The final section delves into researching new literacies, digital remixing, and a case study on developing research literacy in DIY media contexts.
