{"title":"Critical literacy as legitimate knowledge","authors":"Jennifer Alford, Catarina Schmidt, Anna Lyngfelt","doi":"10.4324/9780429242748-7","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4324/9780429242748-7","url":null,"abstract":"Critical Literacy focuses on socially just readings of the world and offers space for articulating hopeful alternatives in contemporary classrooms constrained by narrowing, conservative agendas. However, critical literacy remains the object of ideological tussle and obfuscation in education policy, and teachers struggle to shift away from long-held perceptions of critical thinking with a focus on reliable sources and detecting bias. Critical Literacy risks losing its transformational place in education unless it can be re-imagined in ways that educators can mobilise amid contemporary, competing demands of education. This chapter presents analysis of teachers' agency in legitimising critical literacy. Drawing on Priestley, Biesta and Robinson’s (2013) model of teacher agency that draws attention to three interactive dimensions of agency: iterational (the teachers’ past life and professional experiences), projective (creative configurations of future goals) and practical-evaluative (present judgements amid contextual constraints), the chapter explores the agency of three school teachers in Australia and Sweden, through classroom observations, interviews and artefacts. Insights are provided into the conditions of agency that enabled the mobilisation of critical literacy within the current, neo-conservative climate. Two of the three teachers were able to exercise agency at the chalkface to promote critical literacy, offering classroom narratives of resistance and hope. Crucially, the practical-evaluative and the projective aspects of agency appear to be firmly rooted in the teachers' iterational experiences. All elements of agency need to be considered urgently by teachers and teacher education for critical literacy to remain relevant in reimagined ways.","PeriodicalId":110652,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Education for Democracy","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134462761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By engaging with multiple perspectives on participatory democracy and education, we hope to more fully understand the principles of a sustainable and collective commitment to civic virtue through education. What does it mean for democracy in a time of enormous global uncertainty and challenge, when the structures that have upheld the story of Western liberal democracies—capitalism, (neo)liberalism, and democracy—are either straining or completely coming apart? The rise of neo-fascism and increasing global tensions require us to consider how we might better inoculate societies from the social diseases of war, inequality, and potential social collapse.","PeriodicalId":110652,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Education for Democracy","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133651386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors draw on the experience of Jacinta, one of the participants from a larger ethnographic study of outer metropolitan high schools in Perth, Western Australia, to better understand how young people navigate the dynamics and complex demands of classrooms. Jacinta's experience sheds light on the ways in which schools are becoming increasingly irrelevant and inhospitable places for some of society's most vulnerable and marginalised young people. The authors contend that far too many young people like Jacinta are being failed by society and excluded from the benefits of education. At the same time, Jacinta captures the sense of hope and optimism that many young people have for their imagined futures and it is this sense of agency that creates new possibilities for education based on the values of democracy, social justice, trust, respect and care for all.","PeriodicalId":110652,"journal":{"name":"Re-imagining Education for Democracy","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130536709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
