This is a book about how people use advanced information technologies to write for community change. The author argues that the work of citizenship is knowledge work - on the same order as that expected of workers in business and industry. The importance of this book is in the way it understands writing and technology, and the implications of these understandings for how we need to teach and learn with students.
This book provides readers with a critical self-reflective approach to studying the impact of social, cultural, historical, political, and educational backgrounds on the acquisition of literacy. It adds to the work that values contextual approaches to studying technological literacy acquisition, acknowledges the researcher's positionalities in conducting research, and demonstrates how becoming an effective educator and researcher in a diverse society is not just a matter of acquiring information, but rather a process of personal growth and transformation.
