The book focuses on a range of strategies that can be utilised to reimagine literacy learning in a 21st century context including parent and teacher talk; active listening; fostering student driven questions; building vocabulary and imagery; and metacognitive talk. These are argued to have a hugely beneficial impact on how children learn to solve problems, engage in complex thought processes, negotiate meaning, as well as learning how to wonder, explore, create and defend ideas. The book also defends the importance of parents, teachers and academics as ‘storytellers’, using their bodies and voices as instruments of engagement and power. It will make compelling reading for students, teachers and researchers working in the fields of education and sociology, particularly those with an interest in creative methods for improving literacy.Creativity, Education and the ArtsArt educationLiteracySociolinguisticsLearningInstructionEducational technologyCreativity and Arts Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O11000Literacyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O40000Sociolinguisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N44000Learning & Instructionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O22000Technology and Digital Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O47000Art education.Literacy.Sociolinguistics.Learning.Instruction.Educational technology.Creativity and Arts Education.Literacy.Sociolinguistics.Learning & Instruction.Technology and Digital Education.700.71Latham Gloriaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1063821Ewing Robynauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299529903321Generative Conversations for Creative Learning2534913UNINA
