E-raamat: Doing Critical Literacy: Texts and Activities for Students and Teachers

" a wonderful collection of tried, contemporary, multi-modal activities and invitations for exploring critical literacies. What is so powerful about the activities is that each one is extremely well theorized and yet very accessible."

Vivian Maria Vasquez, American University, USA

"Youll be blown away by Doing Critical Literacy. A pedagogic masterpiece, it is the perfect companion to Janks Literacy and Power. Teachers everywhere will be waiting to try out the clever, engaging and challenging activities with their students."

Barbara Comber, Queensland University of Technology, Australia

" not only a must read but a must do in literacy education. The diverse activities invite both students and teachers to engage critically in innovative classroom practices that offer a range of identity positions from which students can read and write, listen and speak. A compelling text that is long overdue."

Bonnie Norton, University of British Columbia, Canada

"The explicit and careful approach of this book will enable teachers who have not ventured to teach for critical literacy to do so and thus potentially play a role in shifting teachers practices and fostering students as text analysts in line within the broad democratic project. A valuable contribution. "

Jeanne Prinsloo, African Media Matrix, Rhodes University, South Africa

" a welcome resource for those who wish to introduce students to critical literacy using thought provoking activities. Complex ideas can be understood clearly in this engaging activity volume. Teachers can use it with students to teach critical literacy in a fresh and accessible way."
