Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"[This book] counters narrow definitions of family literacy by presenting an alternative paradigm, a different version of the reality of families' literate lives. Instead of offering to "help" families with their literacy, Taylor's text shows her readers how families can gain the power they need to change the world in ways that are most significant and meaningful to them."-Composition Chronicle

Reseña del editor:

At a time when family literacy policies and practices are confusingly fragmented and often deficit driven, "Many Families, Many Literacies" provides much-needed guidance on developing policies and practices that build on the strengths that families bring to any learning situation: their diverse languages, literacies and complex problem-solving capabilities. "Many Families, Many Literacies" reclaims family literacy from the family literacy movement and asserts that society constructs the conditions of poverty in which many families are forced to live. It represents the opinions of 49 leading education experts and family literacy practitioners, including Lucille Fandel, Ken Goodman, Yetta Goodman, David Barton, Audrey N. Grant, Klaudia Rivera, Judith Kalman, Letta Matsiepe Mashishi and many others. This edited collection may prove valuable reading for any educator, researcher or community-based practitioner concerned about the political implications of the family literacy movement.
