Product Description
by Sangeeta Bagga-Gupta (Editor), Giulia Messina Dahlberg (Editor), Ylva Lindberg (Editor)
This volume fills a gap in the literature between the domains of Communication Studies and Educational Sciences across physical-virtual spaces as they intersect in the 21st century. The chapters focus on "languaging" - communicative practices in the making - and its intersection with analogue and virtual learning spaces, bringing together studies that highlight the constant movement between analogue-virtual dimensions that continuously re-shape participants' identity positionings. Languaging is understood as the deployment of one or more than one language variety, modality, embodiment, etc in human meaning-making across spaces. Languaging activities are explored through a multitude of literary artefacts, genres, media, and modes produced in and across sites. The authors go beyond "best practice" approaches and instead present "how-to-explore" communicative practices for researchers, learners and teachers. This book will be of interest to readers situated in the areas of literacy, literature, bi/multilingualism, multimodality, linguistic anthropology, applied linguistics, and related fields.
Chapters 2, 5, 8 and 12 are open access under a CC BY 4.0 license at link.springer.com.
