1. Identifying Literac(ies) Activity
1. Select a literacy event you
have engaged in within the
last twenty-four hours. How
are you able to identify the
event? What is the purpose
of the event? What unique
literacy practices or texts are
used? What domain does the
event fall in
(home, work, church, etc.)?
How does the domain the
literacy event occurs in affect
its literacy practices (the
reading or writing
performed)?
2. Does anyone in your group
share in this event? If so, do
their literacy practices differ
from your own? How does it
differ and why do you think it
differs? What wider cultural
influences might be
responsible for the
differences?
