Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The scope and nature of this account of the modern history of reading/literacy education (especially tied to the aspirational readers) are unique. Enlisting the metaphor of waves, it traces monumental shifts in theory, research and practice related to reading education and literacy that represent developments that verge on revolutionary changes. Each of these waves is accompanied with a discussion of the aspirational reader that sets the stage for contemplating these shifts and their significance. The discussions trace the research and theoretical developments in a fashion that exemplifies the origins of the shifts and their influences"--

Book Synopsis Literacy in America by : Edward E. Gordon
Download or read book Literacy in America written by Edward E. Gordon and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2003 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive history of how the American people achieved varying degrees of literacy from early colonial times to the modern era. The authors demonstrate that literacy education is not synonymous with schooling. By focusing on people rather than statistics, including literacy among women and minority groups, they explore the literacy agents, methods, and materials used at different times and places throughout the history of the country. The authors define literacy as the degree of interaction with written text that enables individuals to be productive members of their societies. Family literacy is essential to awakening the personal responsibility and motivation necessary for children to develop a love of reading. This effort requires more intensive collaboration procedures between the home and the school, some of which are detailed here. Based largely on primary materials, this historical survey reveals important lessons from the past that can be applied to achieve higher levels of 21st- century literacy.
Book Synopsis Paulo Freire and the Cold War Politics of Literacy by : Andrew J. Kirkendall
Download or read book Paulo Freire and the Cold War Politics of Literacy written by Andrew J. Kirkendall and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-10-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the twentieth century, illiteracy and its elimination were political issues important enough to figure in the fall of governments (as in Brazil in 1964), the building of nations (in newly independent African countries in the 1970s), and the construction of a revolutionary order (Nicaragua in 1980). This political biography of Paulo Freire (1921-97), who played a crucial role in shaping international literacy education, also presents a thoughtful examination of the volatile politics of literacy during the Cold War. A native of Brazil's impoverished northeast, Freire developed adult literacy training techniques that involved consciousness-raising, encouraging peasants and newly urban peoples to see themselves as active citizens who could transform their own lives. Freire's work for state and national government agencies in Brazil in the early 1960s eventually aroused the suspicion of the Brazilian military, as well as of U.S. government aid programs. Political pressures led to Freire's brief imprisonment, following the military coup of 1964, and then to more than a decade and a half in exile. During this period, Freire continued his work in Chile, Nicaragua, and postindependence African countries, as well as in Geneva with the World Council of Churches and in the United States at Harvard University. Andrew J. Kirkendall's evenhanded appraisal of Freire's pioneering life and work, which remains influential today, gives new perspectives on the history of the Cold War, the meanings of radicalism, and the evolution of the Left in Latin America.

Book Synopsis A Social History of Literacy in Japan by : Richard Rubinger
Download or read book A Social History of Literacy in Japan written by Richard Rubinger and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the great interest in and the availability of enormous literature about education in Japan, this book is a translation of the first work written in Japanese on the history of literacy in Japan. The authors are each accomplished scholars of Japanese educational history, and each provides solid empirical evidence and original analyses of literacy in their own particular specialty, from Heian aristocrats, to religious sects in the medieval period, to Christian believers in the sixteenth century, to a variety of farmers and merchants in early modern times. The book is unique in the sense that literacy in Japan is analysed with a high degree of methodological sophistication backed by empirical evidence in the form of “signatures” or personal marks on documents, on so many topics. The result is to show the often fallacious and easy generalizations made about literacy in Japan and to show that evidence exists to enable more robust empirical investigations to be undertaken. This book will make it possible for the Japanese case to be used more meaningfully worldwide and in comparative studies of literacy.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich and thoughtful history of our discipline and organization is for every teacher of the English language arts and English studies who wonders where we've been, how we got where we are today, and where we all might be traveling as literacy educators in the 21st century. Reading the Past, Writing the Future celebrates NCTE's centennial by emphasizing the role the organization has played in brokering and advancing the many traditions and countertraditions engaging literacy educators since the organization was chartered in 1911. Leila Christenbury's introductory essay discusses trends in American literacy education. Then, prominent scholars focus on activities and subject matters central to teaching English language arts and college English: teaching reading, writing, language, and literature; using new media effectively; working for social justice in the classroom, school, and community; devising responsible means to assess the work of students and teachers; initiating the next generation into the profession; cultivating an ethos for action among those who support as well as critique this work; and looking toward the work that remains to be done in the century ahead. Finally, the afterword offers a telescopic view of the last 100 years and describes several critical problems currently facing literacy educators. Appendixes provide details of NCTE's history, including a timeline and listings of NCTE presidents, executive directors, section chairs, journal editors, commissions and assemblies, and convention sites and themes. This rich and thoughtful history of our discipline and organization is for every teacher of the English language arts and English studies who wonders where we've been, how we got where we are today, and where we all might be traveling as literacy educators in the 21st century.
