Abstract

This innovative volume brings together perspectives from two fields of enquiry and practice: ‘literacies and learning’ and ‘learning technologies’. With their own histories and trajectories, in practice, theory and research, they have generally remained discrete. In tackling this divide head on, the volume breaks new ground in illustrating how complementary and contrasting approaches can be brought together in productive ways, and considers the implications of this for practitioners working across a wide range of contexts. In so doing, the book showcases work from well-respected authorities in the two fields in order to provide the foundations for new conversations about learning and practice in the digital university. It speaks to teachers, students and researchers, educational developers, learning technologists, librarians, university managers and administrators, indeed anyone interested in a critical and pragmatic exploration of literacy in the digital university.
