This book is a valuable resource for teacher educators, teachers and students teachers and it makes an important contribution to the field of the teaching of literacy in primary schools because it opens opportunities for technology and literacy to come together in meaningful and practical ways.
This book is a valuable resource in getting students to think through issues posed by an increasingly digital world. It provides a large number of case studies and further resources to explore which my students have enjoyed. I really liked the thematic organisation of each chapter around several main topics rather than the traditional chapter format. This makes dipping in the book and finding information really easy. The further reading sections, again, provide lots of ideas and links across the curriculum.
Not relevant to content of taught modules.
Interesting, well-informed and well-structured. This is an important topic which will increase in significance, so the book is timely and helpful.
Well written book dealing with contemporary issues and the role of computing and information technology in the development of literacy. Researched thinking underpins relevant practical ideas for the classroom.
Lovely text, well organised chapters and easy to navigate. Really interesting read.
An interesting text, with relevant chapters. Of particular interest is the chapter on 'Technological interventions in early literacy', which will usefully support students considering the role of IT in EY.
A very good text book that supports both the Computing and ICT and English module on the FdA T&L Support programme for primary support teachers
Interesting text which supported students understanding well.
Useful focus on the wide range of literacies available today. The chapters are relatively short and facilitate personal reflection and adopting a critical approach to literacies.
Excellent resource. Lots of practical guidance and critical thinking exercises providing opportunities for debate and deeper discussion. Written in a very accessible way, this book is clear, with key ideas and comment sections and a wealth for further reading suggestions.
