This book illuminates emerging perspectives and possibilities of the vibrant schooling and civic lives of Black African youth and communities in the United States, Canada, and globally. Chapters present key research on how to develop and enact teaching methodologies and research approaches that support Black African immigrant and refugee students. The contributors illuminate contours of the Framework for Educating African Immigrant Youth which focuses on four complementary approaches for teaching and learning: emboldening tellings of diaspora narratives; navigating pasts, presence, and futures of teaching and learning; enacting social civic literacies to extend complex identities; and affirming and extending cultural, heritage, and embodied knowledges, languages, and practices. The frameworks and practices will strengthen how educators address the interplay of identities presented by African, and by extension, Black immigrant populations. Disciplinary perspectives include literacy and language, social studies, civics, mathematics, and higher education; university and community partnerships; teacher education; global and comparative education, and after-school initiatives. Book Features:A focus on honoring and affirming the range of youth and community's diverse, embodied, social-civic literacies and lived experiences as part of their educational journey, reframing harmful narratives of immigrant youth, families, and Africa.Chapter authors that include Black African scholars, early-career, and senior scholars from a range of institutions, including in the United States and Canada.Chapters that draw on and extend a range of theoretical lenses grounded in African epistemologies and ontologies, as well as postcolonial and/or decolonizing approaches, culturally relevant and sustaining frameworks, language and literacy as a social practice, transnationalism, theater as social action, transformative and asset-based processes and practices, migration, and emotional capital, and more.A cross-disciplinary approach that addresses the scope and heterogeneity of African immigrant youth racialized as Black and their schooling, education, and civic engagement experiences. Implications are considered for teachers, teacher educators, and community educators.

This eighth edition of Theoretical Models and Processes of Literacy, a foundational text in literacy research, is updated to represent a new era in contemporary and critical scholarship. With a revised name, the intentional inclusion of diverse perspectives, and new organizational structure, Theories, Models, and Practices of Literacy thoroughly represents the theories that drive literacy and the scholars who write about and within the field.While still representing the most comprehensive source for connecting theories to literacy research and practice, this eighth edition builds on preceding editions, contextualizing its historical roots, promoting and highlighting contemporary and critical theories, and envisioning future directions in literacy. This volume addresses theories across ten sections, including early, youth, and community literacies; teaching literacy and literacy teacher education; dis/abilities and disciplinary literacy theories; digital and multimodal literacies; and the disruption of colonial boundaries in language and global literacies. The chapters in this volume are curated to inspire the interrogation of literacy theory and foster its evolution. Additional archival essays from previous editions will remain available as Support Material on the book’s webpage.New to the eighth edition:• 80% new material (and significantly revised previous materials) to reflect emerging and contemporary theories and scholarship. • A more globalized approach to theorizing literacy practices, including those with onto-epistemological perspectives rooted in people's lived experiences, literacies, and languages to engage scholars and audiences who may be new users of the text. • Focus on theories that actively challenge traditional theoretical literacy frames and raise critical consciousness toward communities marginalized by the "white gaze" historically represented in literacy theory, literacy research, and literacy education. • New avenues for readers to explore how theory informs practice, practice informs theory, and how both are "taken up" in various contexts (e.g., classrooms, schools, communities, and societies).

In this book, literacy, language, and educational researchers, teacher educators, and educators offer novel conceptualizations theorizing (game)play as a teaching practice and research approach.The contributors of the book, known as the (Game)play Collaborative, define (game)play with “gaming” as a communicative social practice extending the interplay of literacy and learning, and possibilities of critical authoring, making, reading, and (re)writing intersectional embodied identities; and “play” as evoking and affirming pleasure and joy while necessarily envisioning, (re)imagining, and extending raced, ethnic, gendered, linguistic, and cultural identities within and beyond varied transbordered contexts and physical and digital geographies of homes, communities, and (in)formal educational spaces. The book explores different iterations of (game)play in connection with literacy across cultures and communities. In doing so, it generates new understandings of the interplay of literacy and language teaching and research and the intersectional identities of children and youth rendered more visible through (game)play with families, peers, community members, and educators.This is a great resource for educators, researchers, teacher educators, and graduate students in the fields of language and literacy education, educational technology and game studies, media literacy education, and multicultural education.
