Welcome to the group blog of English 213, Introduction to Digital Literacies at Ball State University. Digital literacies present a new beginning to human communication, and an ending: the beginning is the connection we all now have in the global village. The ending is the demise of single-path literacy--alphabetic, traditional, stable, and comfortable for most of us. Now we are communicating in/from many directions, broadband, multimodal...there are many possibilities for personal and social development and many dangers to avoid.
The voices on this blog will explore these endings and beginnings. We'll reflect on what we find on the Internet that exemplifies, explains, and/or questions how literacy is enacted today, and how it is and should be taught. Comments and challenges are welcome!
