2. WHERE DOES AUSTRALIA RATE?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_literacy_rate
3. BACKGROUND
• The Australian Bureau of Statistics estimates that 7.3 million
Australians - almost half the adult population - have problems with
literacy. These people often struggle to hold down jobs, balance their
household budget and just make their way through each day.
(Australian, April 9th, 2013)
• The 2006/7 Adult Literacy and Lifeskills Survey (ALLS) indicated that
between 46% and 70% of adults in Australia had “poor” or “very
poor” skills across one or more of the five skill domains of prose
literacy, document literacy, numeracy, problem-solving and health
literacy.

5. TYPES OF LITERACY
• Media literacy
• Critical literacy
• Visual literacy
• Information literacy
• Digital literacy
• Eliteracy
• Transliteracy
• Multiliteracy
6. OVERARCHING TERMS FOR NEW LITERACIES
Transliteracy
Multiliteracy
Transliteracy (pl. transliteracies) is the ability to
understand and communicate—i.e., to be
"literate"—across all communications platforms,
including sign language, speech, reading, writing,
mass media, and social media. The term was
coined in 2005 by the Transliteracies Research
Project
Multiliteracies is a term coined by the New
London Group. Because the way people
communicate is changing due to new
technologies, and because there are shifts in the
usage of the English language within different
cultures a new "literacy" must also be used and
developed.

do things I wasn’t good at and that I
wasn’t interested in.”
Appointed editor of the
new media based school
magazine.
“Finally after several years I was
able to spend time at school doing
things I enjoyed and that I was good at!”
8. MORE ON MULTILITERACY:
• while eating breakfast, students may be listening and speaking at the table while watching a morning news
program that requires them to attend to print, view both still and moving images, interact with a website or
view a film clip, and at the same time interpret the behaviour of the news broadcasters interviewing
someone from another country on a split screen.
• To learn within this environment, students need to be able to understand and use the grammars of
language, still and moving images, music and sound. These grammars are often referred to as semiotic
systems. Five semiotic systems have been identified; the linguistic (ie the traditional system of producing
shared meaning using sounds, words, sentences, paragraphs etc), the visual (eg line, colour, vector, texture),
the gestural (eg facial expression, body position and posture), the spatial (eg the organisation of people and
objects in space) and the aural (eg sound, music and silence).
• A 21st-century multiliterate individual needs to have the skills to consume all five semiotic systems.
Conversely, they will be required to produce texts that use all five systems such as play scripts, email, video
and PowerPoint presentations. The terms ‘consuming’ and ‘producing’ are used here because they more
accurately describe the knowledge, skills and processes employed in constructing print and digital texts than
the traditional terms reading, listening, writing and speaking.
• Exposure to all these forms of text must go hand in hand with the realisation that all texts are consciously
constructed in order to share information in particular ways – that texts can shape attitudes, values and
behaviours.

11. LITERACY OVERKILL?
Is it a case of literacy overkill?
Literacy simply has come to
mean the ability to do
something effectively eg sing
(musical literacy?)

13. “Keep It Real” (ie authentic)
1998
Your students want to discuss real issues
15. WHAT IS YOUR/THEIR PURPOSE?
Why do they want to read and write? What do they want to
accomplish? AND … what are YOU trying to achieve?
16. The Question of Values
Our philosophy determines how
we perceive and deal with our
preferred teaching methods –
which includes how (or if) we
choose and use e-learning
technologies.

25. MANY CHANNELS
How I communicate with people I know:
• Person B – SMS OR Facebook
• Person C – Facebook
• Person D – email or SMS
• Person BE – FB or email
• Person T – SMS
• Person A – SMS or Facebook
• Person J – email
• Person E - phone
27. ALL ‘TARGETED’ LEARNERS REQUIRE:
• Clear context (why am I here?)
• Clear purpose (why am I doing this?)
• Opportunity to create, interpret (make meaning)
• That they be given a voice > a sense of self-worth/value
= feeling successful > motivation
• Support
• Patience
28. CONDITIONS THAT PROMOTE LEARNING
• Experiential learning in which concepts and language are closely linked to
students’ own experiences
• literacy tasks that are related to students’ concrete experiences
• the use of visual, concrete and tactile materials
• frequent repetition and recycling of learned material
• frequent breaks and changes of pace
• group and collaborative learning
• course hours aligned with students’ availability and learning needs
• the grouping of learners with similar needs together, rather than mixing levels
and abilities in one class.

32. POSSIBLE ACTIVITIES
• Streets of Tehran (or similar)
• Bruce’s students – cleaning up vacant lot/planting stuff > website
(tactile, concrete)
• Solving authentic problems (keeping it real/relevant; linked to
students’ own experiences)
• Working with community (“take the classroom to the world OR bring
the world into your classroom”)
• Flickr (for tagging)
33. TEACHING ABOUT TAGS WITH FLICKR (or
Instagram)
• Choose an image
• Brainstorm possible tags
• Search for other images with
these same tags
• Have students create images and
tag them
• Upload to Flickr via class account
Skills: tagging, searching,
vocabulary, content creation
34. DIGITAL STORYTELLING
Digital stories combine digital images (still or video), a
narrated ‘story’ or voice over, and sometimes music or
sound effects into a ‘mini-movie’ that usually runs for
around 2-4 minutes. They are a wonderful way to capture
lives and local history, and are VERY easy to create.
