Tornadoes have already caused damage in AR this morning, and this line is headed our way for the afternoon (with better dynamics for severe storms here in TN)

#literacies “Video remix offers viewers a both a lens through which to see pop culture’s narratives more clearly and a growing set of texts that imaginatively rewrite those scripts.”

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

#literacies Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Remix. Why not, remix the digital literacies around us in our world to make sense of it.

#literacies Fanfiction can help create that safe space for kids to try out things they may not want to commit to in real life.

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

#literacies fanfiction as a pedagogical tool to challenge ideas and representation. It could unlock an exploration of classroom taboo.

As new technologies are introduced and implemented in our classrooms, teachers must help their students gain the skills and strategies needed to use them. Do we need a 21st century class? #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

There’s no question that students can google search. That’s when the problem arises. They lack the knowledge of what to do next. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

Teach students to use critical analysis as a scaffold using media outlets they already know before moving on to challenging texts? Yes please! #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

Engage our students by intersecting their lives and stories with others who are not immune to the struggle. #literacies

Using Tech Tools #literacies

@ToriRaye7293 I believe it’s (as I relate) in navigating the text in regards to the spatial representation of the physical text. New innovations for reading with tech that improves navigation will be needed to balance the outcomes. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

I’m reading an article on my computer about research showing that student comprehension performance is significantly better when reading on paper over computer screen. I concur #teacherstoo #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

With little effort, it’s possible to connect classic literature to their students’ lives through authentic discussions as much as any modern day YA. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

Considering students’ multiple identities when planning will help your students connect to seemingly impossible literature. #literacies

WTG with bridging the equity gap Baltimore County Public Schools. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

To encourage a culturally responsive classroom, it’s imperative as a teacher to build community and literacy skills based around those communities. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

@PeachTeachYall Are traditional texts really preparing our students to be effective in the 21st century? Their reality already includes texts from a variety of new formats. #literacies

[Taylor Jackson @mj8360]

According to research, the concept of “new” literacies consists of both technical and ethos stuff. However, ethos stuff happens to be the key player for “new” literacies. Technical alone does not apply. #literacies
