E-raamat: Teaching for Equity, Justice, and Antiracism with Digital Literacy Practices: Knowledge, Tools, and Strategies for the ELA Classroom

"This timely text is a must read for all teachers of English Language Arts in our contemporary moment. Focusing on the plethora of opportunities afforded by digital tools as well as the complex nature of student's literacies, it provides tangible activities, strategies, and platforms for classroom integration while simultaneously challenging us to critically consider systems of power and the pedagogical implications of teaching in a digital world." -Ashley S. Boyd, Associate Professor of English Education, Washington State University

Bringing together leading scholars in the field of English Language Arts, this book is profound in its conceptualizations of the connections between digital literacy and learner diversity and rich in its depiction of learning practices. Its authors are pathbreakers in their respective areas of expertise, traversing some of the most pressing challenges for English Language Arts today: the essential multimodality of culture and communications in the digital era; strategies for the negotiation of learner diversity; the necessity of socio-emotional connection to learning; and the shoals of ideology that nowadays present ever-present hazards in the navigation of textual value. The ideas and approaches presented in the book are innovative and fresh. At the same time, they are of long-term relevance and I am certain it will prove to be of lasting significance to the field of English Language Arts. -Mary Kalantzis, Professor of Education Policy, Organization and Leadership, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
