Sadly, there is an unfair distribution of what this means for people holding the same skillsets. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911108 2017-06-19 21:59:02 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911108 Examine the forms of literacy students comfortably use already and incorporate, capitalize and build upon within the classroom. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911318 2017-06-19 22:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911318 Critique and transformative action. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911573 2017-06-19 22:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176911573 "Critical literacies involve the consumption, production, and distribution of print and new media texts by, with, ,and on behalf of marginalized populations in the interests of naming, exposing, and destabilizing power relations; and promoting individual freedom and expression.

It's about interpreting, questioning, and developing a critical stance. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912032 2017-06-19 22:16:04 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912032 Need for teachers and teachers to be , to be trained and then participate in research within their classrooms and contribute to the field. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912094 2017-06-19 22:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912094 Duty as a teacher to promote positive social change. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912110 2017-06-19 22:17:56 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/176912110 * Pop culture often takes a back seat to the dominant culture, when it could be the perfect place for the melding of the two. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705719 2017-06-29 03:40:57 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705719 * We can't allow top-down directives to completely dictate what we're going to teach and how we are going to teach it. We need to connect with our students. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705770 2017-06-29 03:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705770 *Students come to school with different background knowledge and it's unfair to act as though the shared experiences of the dominant culture are somehow more valuable than others. Knowing your students and allowing them to shine using the forums they're comfortable with will help the teacher identify strengths to share with the class, and areas to address in future classes. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705847 2017-06-29 03:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705847 * We need to reexamine how our mandated curriculum is falling short in terms of requiring or even encouraging critical thinking skills. We don't want to teach students to regurgitate what they've read through formulaic responses. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705990 2017-06-29 03:47:23 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177705990 *Teachers express that they see the value of using pop culture to relate school curriculum to student interests, but feel underprepared to actually carry it out. Teachers need the pressure from the high-stakes climate relieved so they can experiment and take risks without penalty. deniseg5 https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177706049 2017-06-29 03:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/deniseg5/2gmeysf0qhch/wish/177706049
