9. What is Transliteracy?
Communicating, reading, writing, across
“platforms.”
Transliteracy calls for a change of perspective
away from the battles over print versus digital, and a
move instead towards a unifying ecology …of all
literacies relevant to reading, writing, interaction and
culture, both past and present.
text + media …in digital environments. The “plus”
indicates the zone of negotiation—of mutation,
adaptation, cooptation, hybridization, etc.—by
which the older text [print, writing, orality, and
audiovisual ] enters into new relations with digital
media and with networked communication
technologies. Aspects of this “plus” include:

22. Reading at Risk: A Survey of Literary
Reading in America, showed an alarming decline of reading in
all age groups across the country, and especially among
eighteen-to twenty-four-year-olds.
The chairman of the NEA termed the results an indication
of a “national crisis,” one that reflected “a
general collapse in advanced literacy,” and a loss that
“impoverishes both cultural and civic life.”

33. With your neighbor…. Come up
with an analogy for today’s
online “reading” or
“researching”
34.
35. “browsing, searching, scanning, jumping,
filtering, aggregating, organizing, and other
kinds of discontinuous, low-attention,
peripheral-vision, or machine-assisted
reading practices that only partially map
over predecessor practices of literacy. But
also: new ways to focalize or intensify
reading among the clutter as in the ability
of RSS and similar tools to create a virtual
“my newspaper.”
Does this equate to a working
definition of online reading?
