Literacies

Angus likes the convenience, but is sceptical about how it leads you astray. Rebecca realises that her train trip is a sort of living demo of network literacy (I don’t think it is, but hey). The really weird thing is to realise that since it is wireless, we’re all sitting in it. Alexandra realises that print literacy is a deep shared knowledge, unlike network literacy, and Carli is surprised to realise that the internet isn’t like a book.

Ashleigh has very useful summary points, and note, parts stay parts and we then weave. This is radically different to what was before (BW — Before Web). Ellen realises that using the web is not the same as being literate. For me this is like using a car, just because I can drive a car it doesn’t mean I’m ‘literate’ about cars, even if I drive a car a lot, even very well.
