Literacy Practices and Perceptions of Agency: Composing Identities

Autor Bronwyn T. Williams
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 iul 2017
In this book, Bronwyn T. Williams explores how perceptions of agency—whether a person perceives and feels able to read and write successfully in a given context—are critical in terms of how people perform their literate identities. Drawing on interviews and observations with students in several countries, he examines the intersections of the social and the personal in relation to how and, crucially, why people engage successfully or struggle painfully in literacy practices and what factors and forces they regard as enabling or constraining their actions. Recognizing such moments and patterns can help teachers and researchers rethink their approaches to teaching to facilitate students’ sense of agency as writers and readers.

Descriere

Exploring ways in which how a person perceives and feels their abilities to read and write successfully in a given context shape how he or she performs their literate identities, Bronwyn Williams draws on interviews and observations with students in several countries to examine the intersections of the social and personal in relation to how and why people engage successfully or struggle painfully in literacy practices and what factors and forces they regard as enabling or constraining their actions.
