This article on literacy produced by the National Council of Teachers of English, (NCTE) discusses how the innovative and rapidly changing digital technologies are defining and redefining literacy in our ever changing global world. They are opening up new avenues for educators to cultivate and advance reading and writing in a wide variety of ways. It is allocating interconnectivity through discourse among students at home and in the classroom environment. 21st Century Literacies
I thought it was an article that as Writing Arts/ Education students we could readily identify with, and relate it to our studies. In Technologies and the Future of Writing, Professor Wolff exposed us to the social writing space of blogs. Our collaboration in creating a blog site within groups opened up for us another forum. Here we can communicate and share our thoughts and ideas outside the writing classroom. It is kudos to the future of writing and to this writing module for connecting us to the literacy of the 21st century.
