Literacy, Society, and Schooling : A Reader Paperback / softback
Edited by Suzanne de (Simon Fraser University, British Columbia) Castell, Allan (James Cook University, North Queensland) Luke, Kieran (Simon Fraser University, British Columbia) Egan
Paperback / softback
Description
This book addresses the current 'literacy crisis' alleged in professional journals and the popular press.
Literacy is at once a contentious social and educational issue, a continuing concern of parents and teachers, and the focal point of a range of disciplinary inquiries.
Literacy, Society, and Schooling draws together especially commissioned essays on the nature, history, and pedagogy of literacy by social historians, philosophers, literary scholars, linguists, educators, and psychologists.
The editors have attempted to convey, in an accessible format, the range and diversity of the scholarly debate about literacy-theory, research, and practice.
Students, teachers, and researchers will find Literacy, Society, and Schooling an invaluable resource.
