THE TEXTURE OF LEARNING TO WRITE IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY

Keynote day 1
This presentation focuses on the escalating demands that are being put on people’s writing skills as nations compete with each other in a global knowledge economy. As writing becomes a dominant form of labour in many developed societies, it begins to change relationships between reading and writing in people’s daily lives and changes the way people think about and value literacy. How does a societal shift in time and energy toward writing affect the ways that adults and children develop their literacy and understand its worth? How does the ascendancy of a writing-based literacy create tensions in institutions (like schools) that have been organized around a reading-based literacy? What are the implications for teachers and students?

Keynote day 2
How do secondary education students use digital and multilingual resources on a daily basis through formal and informal learning practices in the cases of Catalan and Spanish as L1? What do they do with ICT in and out of the classroom and how do these practices impact L1 development? What are the empirical findings in the local context of Catalonia, and how do they relate to findings in the broader Spanish and International contexts?
