Description: Literacy Practices in Transition : Perspectives from the Nordic Countries, Paperback by Pitkanen-huhta, Anne (EDT); Holm, Lars (EDT), ISBN 1847698395, ISBN-13 9781847698391, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Researchers examine how changing literacy practices in a globalized world are impacting learning environments and the construction of identity in Nordic countries. Pitkänen-Huhta (English, language learning and teaching, U. of Jyvässklyä, Finland) and Holm (education, Aarhus U., Denmark) introduce essays drawing on critical literacy studies, applied linguistics, and post-structuralist ideas of language and literacy as socially constructed. One author characterizes the multilingual classroom as "a messy marketplace," with contradictory pulls toward greater diversity and standardization. Include charts of Swedish national syllabi, excerpts of student translations into English, and photos of classroom instruction. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
