You can “front-load” using quotes and ask students to respond to the ideas. Sometimes, students can define critical literacy for themselves when given clear and effective quotes that support the main ideas and principles of critical literacy.
-similar to creating a class profile or an interest inventory-helps to establish the position of the students in your class-useful for the teacher when trying to get to know students and what they are bringing to the class/course
The term \"Web 2.0\" describes the changing trends in the use of World Wide Web technology and web design that aim to enhance creativity, communications, secure information sharing, collaboration and functionality of the web. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web culture communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, video sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and folksonomies. The term first became notable after the O'Reilly Media Web 2.0 conference in 2004.[1][2] Although the term suggests a new version of the World Wide Web, it does not refer to an update to any technical specifications, but rather to changes in the ways software developers and end-users utilize the Web. According to Tim O'Reilly:“Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as a platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform.”
-parents are generally thrilled when their children are excited about learning-critical literacy allows for the excitement of classroom activity to be reflected in functional expressions of their daily work increased student achievement-an opportunity to create space for parents to share their experiences/personal narratives, especially immigrants, women working in typically male spheres (maybe not in their child’s own class) fosters an authentic partnership between home and school
In the discipline of critical literacy, the word “interrogate” is often used in place of “analyze”. Critical literacy is not the same as critical thinking skills, and the language must be reflective of this mindset. Critical literacy challenges societal norms and encourages skepticism, therefore, using loaded words like “interrogate” demonstrate the kind of work being done.
The Centre for Media Literacy has developed 5 core concepts and 5 key questions that we can use to interrogate text. This chart has been adapted from their model.
