A3: My perception of literacies has expanded from only reading and writing to including many different types of text and literacies to help engage and include students, particularly marginalized students. #schmiteracies
A2: #science is portrayed differently in different forms of media. It is important to not just check to make sure the facts are "right", but also investigate the biases and the context to which the media is portraying the data #schmiteracies
A1: I think #science has the opportunity to include more literacy practices, such as including social media or coding skills, into this new distance/hybrid model. Many scientists now tweet about their data, so why not include twitter in a science class? #schmiteracies
A4: Teacher guides can miss individuality of the student, no two students are the same and people are complex. They cannot and should not nicely fit into a box that labels them as “literate” #schmiteracies
A3: Standards allow for a jumping off point of literacy practices that can then be expanded upon in ways that allow for self-expression and individuality. It is harmful, though, because who gets to choose what is important enough to be a standard? #schmiteracies
A2: Schools might be designed to value ‘correctness’ over self-expression because correctness is more easily measured. This benefits the dominant culture since it strengthens their hold over society for there to be right and wrong answers

A1: Self-expression in #science might look like explaining concepts using your own terms, not just in the terms of scientific jargon. Disruption of the perfectionism and conciseness in a science classroom.

To me textual dexterities means having the ability to use different modes of texts to expresss yourself, the abiliy to use different forms of literacy #schmiteracies
A4: I expereinced appropriation of the dominant culture in the way scientific articles and texts are written. The complexities of the articles seem to often be written so that those with knowledge of what the dominant sphere can understand and pick them apart #schmiteracies
A1: Hi I’m Haley! The text(s) that was a meaningful experience to me were the Junie B. Joes Books because they were the first time I remember actually comprehending the words in some sort of capacity #schmiteracies
Enjoyed Ch 1 of Love’s book “We Want to do More Than Survive” because the discussion on intersectional social justice was very eye opening and intriguing #schmiteracies
