Literacy Place and Pedagogies of Possibility

How can teachers ensure a pedagogy of possibility underpinned by social justice, and what has literacy got to do with this? This book explores the positive synergies between critical literacy and place-conscious pedagogy. Through rich classroom research it introduces and demonstrates how a synthesis of insights from theories of space and place and literacy studies can underpin the design and enactment of culturally inclusive curricula for diverse student communities, and illustrates how making place and space the objects of study provides productive resources for teachers to design enabling pedagogical practices that extend students' literate repertoires.
