Happy to share this new #literacies piece with @sarahejerasa.bsky.social comparing ways that content is suggested and circulated across platforms like TikTok and Webtoon. It was fun to think with frameworks of sponsorship and to talk about webcomics, which I love!

“Building Civic Futures: Vol 2” just arrived! For my #fandom or #literacies folx on here, we share ways to support speculative practices before, during, and after conventions in this chapter “Enacting Speculative Futures with Youth at Fan Conventions” 💯 🥳

I love that my 🚩 🚩 is rehashing #literacies chats at brunch— @natescottjones.bsky.social can attest this hits very close to home 😂 😭

A pleasure to write this piece with @gemmasupernova.bsky.social to look across two virtual out-of-school writing programs.

We explore a common trajectory across both cases for our focal youth advocates… (1/2)

Our #NCTE2024 from “Humor In and Across Learning Spaces”! Great conversations about integrating humor as a critical practice in learning spaces. The group weathered our technical problems with good humor 😉

Our storytelling games roundtable at #NCTE2024 was a blast! Presenters shared games to integrate, interactive narratives, suggestions for using D&D in the classroom, and three (!) custom created roleplaying games for language learning, literature interpretation, and teacher ed.
November 25, 2024 at 2:17 AM
Absolutely! Our digital and multimodal texts platform is open access so feel free to check out: bit.ly/hackyourstack1

And I’ll send our QR code for roleplaying resources as well!

Emily, @aleciamarie.bsky.social and I are psyched about our project with ELA teachers at #SDCC next year! We are so grateful to ELATE for funding our project and supporting this community building.
Watch out for us at #NCTE2025 (with Emily next time, you were missed!)

#NCTE2024 who wants to think together about humor as a critical literacy practice? Join myself & Angel Ky, @scottstorm.bsky.social, and @alexcorbitt.bsky.social on Sunday at 9am. We’ll be building on David Low’s framework (pictured below, check it out!) #NCTE24

Alex Corbitt, @scottstorm.bsky.social, Laura Carter-Stone and I are glad to share our new article on how playful #literacies practices like cosplay, role-play, and improv theater function as action texts and expand how we think about reader-response.
