Whitmore and Meyer bring together top literacy scholars from around
the world to introduce the concept of manifestations: evidence of
meaning making in literacy events, practices, processes, products,
and thinking. Manifestation are windows into literacy identities,
and serve as affective and sociocultural signifiers of learners'
understanding at a point in time and in a specific context. The
volume reclaims progressive spaces for understanding reading,
writing, drawing, speaking, playing, and other literacies. It
grounds manifestations of literacies in the discourse of meaning
making and demonstrates how literacy learners and educators are
active agents in this complex, social, political, emotional, and
multimodal process. Ideal for preservice teachers, graduate
students, and researchers in literacy education, this book shifts
the conversation away from treating literacies as acquired
commodities and illustrates how educators engage with learners to
deepen understanding of literacy learners' experiences. Organized
by five pillars of literacy-teaching, learning, language,
curriculum, and sociocultural contexts-each section covers critical
and cutting-edge topics and offers examples, tools, and strategies
for research and practical applications in diverse classroom
settings. Each chapter includes a range of examples and is followed
by a short, complementary reading extension to engage the reader.
