Description - Global Literacies and the World Wide Web by Gail E. Hawisher
With the Internet creating an environment for global communication, the way that information is created, exchanged and used has changed dramatically over recent years. Global Literacies provides a critical examination of literacy practices on the World Wide Web, including the authoring, designing, reading, analysing, and interpreting of texts. The international contributors challenge the premise that the Web forms a global literacy environment in which people from all over the world communicate with one another without being affected by the significant barriers posed by geopolitical location, language, culture, and everyday social practices. This is a fascinating, state-of-the-art exploration which reveals new understandings of literacy practices within the rapidly changing context of new technologies. Gail E. Hawisher, Cynthia L. Selfe, Sibyelle Gruber, Eniko Csomay, Aliki Dragona, Carolyn Handa, Cathryn McConaghy, Ilana Snyder, Karla Saari Kitalong, Tino Kitalong, Jan Rune Holmevik, Cynthia Hay
