Calling for a Global Turn to Inform Digital Literacies Education
Lammers, Jayne C.; Astuti, Puji
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v64 n4 p371-377 Jan-Feb 2021
Literacies researchers have long argued that the new literacies made possible by the internet facilitate global connectedness. However, much of the research about digital literacies has centered the experiences of participants and researchers from only certain parts of the world. The field needs to embrace a more inclusive understanding of global, acting intentionally to seek out, include, and learn from people in the Global South to truly realize the role that digital literacies have in the life of a global meaning maker. In calling for a global turn in digital literacies research to inform education, the authors share stories from a study with Indonesian secondary students to spark dialogue about how conceptualizations of digital literacies need to shift as voices from the Global South get invited into the conversation.
