Welcome to the Multiliteracies Wiki

 

This is a project of the Center for Adolescent Literacies at UNC Charlotte. Drawing on the work of The New London Group (1996), we seek to advance what it means to be literate by expanding our understanding of literacies and texts by providing tools for teachers and students who seek to bring teaching and learning into the 21st Century.  

 

We acknowledge that there are many ways to think about adolescents' literacies, we have developed the following actions as themes to organize our ideas:

 

 

Other Resources

 

We invite you to view this site and make suggestions for additional content. This site is maintained by the Center for Adolescent Literacies at UNC Charlottein Charlotte, North Carolina but is truly a collaborative effort with much help from K-12 educators and others.

 

If you have questions or comments, you can email Bruce Taylor, Director, the Center for Adolescent Literacies at UNC Charlotte at bruce.taylor@uncc.edu. 

 

 


SUMMER 2015 PLANNING

 

READ 6265 teams will take responsibility for editing two pages. Teams will add any resources as needed but also edit the pages for consistency so that there is a fairly uniform look throughout the wiki (similar fonts, headings, style). Here are the Team assignments:

 

TEAM  MEMBERS  PAGE ASSIGNMENTS 
Team 1  Nicole, Audrey, Kelly  Researching, Exploring 
Team 2  Lorna, Danielle, Kizzy  Creating, Lesson Plans 
Team 3  Lauren, Chris  Communicating, Research and Scholarship 
Team 4  Jessica M., Diedra  Collaborating, Front Page 
Team 5  Stephanie, Jessica H.   Sharing, Other Resources 

 

Expectations

 

Here is what is expected of each READ 6265 team and/or individual in fulfillment of the Multiliteracies Toolkit Assignment and Multiliteracies Instructional Plan:

 

Toolkit (this wiki)

  • Each team will revise/edit/curate its wiki pages here. That is, your team will review the ideas posted to that page and choose those resources and tools that fit with the category. You can add others and remove that your team does not see as a good fit to the page. Each page should have 6 to 8 tools or resources on it. More is okay.
  • Each individual 6265 student should find one article to upload and post on the Research and Scholarship page. You should provide a description of the article and tell readers how it may be useful to educators. The articles should address themes of multiliteracies--technology in the service of teaching and learning, diverse kinds of texts, or addressing culture and diversity.
  • Individual students OR pairs of students OR the entire team working together should create and/or post their Instructional Plan on the Lesson Plans page. The easiest way to do this is to create the plan as a PBWorks page and link it directly to that page.
  • Optional but desired. Post links to other kinds of resources that don't fit in one of the other sections to the Other Resources page.
