Long description:

As digital platforms become increasingly common and even the norm for literacy learning environments, established frameworks, pedagogies, and theories do not always translate neatly to these new contexts. This edited volume explores the complex relationship between digital platforms and literacies, understanding that they have become an unavoidable part of the literacy and education ecosystem. The chapters address a range of contexts and considerations around the social, technical, and economic complexities of platform technologies and how they have remade literacy teaching and learning. Insightful and innovative, this is key reading for literacy scholars, researchers, and graduate students.
