From @EYpedagogists "Literacies are situated. What we mean by this is that literacies are created out of the relationship between children and the people, places, things, practices, and other material and immaterial elements of their worlds." padlet.com/ontarioecenetw…
I’m excited too @McKeeLori
Excited for my 2 open access papers in this issue with @tlscheffel journals.uvic.ca/index.php/jcs/… and journals.uvic.ca/index.php/jcs/…
This post on multimodal texts is one of #AAREblog's most read and republished posts. Author @BartonGeorgina is presenting two new papers at the #AARE2019 conference. Hundreds of educational researchers will be presenting on new research at the #AARE2019 aare.edu.au/blog/?p=3545
I just read "Competent and Valued" on @EdCanNet. Take a look: edcan.ca/articles/compe…
Research questions happen through engagement with interdisciplinary knowledge, conversations with others, openness to different experiences and desire to create something new. They are generative, not repetitive. #CApedagogists
