Perspectives from practicing teacher educators -- Intertwining digital technology and literacy methods courses: exemplary practices of six literacy/English teacher educators -- Literacy/English teacher educators moving forward: a cross case analysis -- Rethinking teacher education programs.
Summary: Literacy learning continues to be central to schooling, and is currently of major concern to educators, policy developers, and members of the public alike. However, the proliferation of communication channels in this digital era requires a fundamental re-thinking of the nature of literacy and the pedagogy of literacy teaching and teacher education. This text brings together papers by experts in teacher education, literacy, and information technology to help chart a way forward in this complex area.
