Overview
This volume explores the multiple and complex relationship between classrooms and literacy through four major themes: community, cognitive consequences, access, and power. Chapters emphasize community dynamics in exploring the relationship between classrooms and literacy. The work focuses on the ways in which literacy is used to establish and maintain community, to the relationship between communities both within and outside of the classroom, to the institutional context, to the community agenda and purpose, and to the needs of the community and individual members.
