Multiple Literacies for Dance, Physical Education and Sports

Description

This book explores a spectrum of literacies relevant to dance, physical education and sports. It examines conceptions of movement literacies, disciplinary literacies and traditional school literacies. It includes theory, research and instructional practice related to the uses of traditional print, multimedia, and embodied physical literacies. These literacies function independently but are also overlapping and mutually reinforcing in comprehensive instructional planning. As movement and activity-related fields continue to explore the potential for multiple literacies, this book introduces numerous possibilities, both conceptual and practical, for consideration. ·        Pre-service and in-service teachers in dance and physical education programs will learn how to integrate multiple literacies in curriculum design and teaching. ·        Graduate students will examine theoretical premises of movement and disciplinary literacies and become familiar with original research on these topics. ·        Teachers, school administrators, coaches and athletic directors will use the book in order to guide the inclusion of movement and activity-based fields in the disciplinary literacy agenda now common in Pre-K through secondary schooling. Media rich chapters, including photographic, video and other graphic images,allow students to access concepts through multiple modalities Preface Acknowledgements Contents Contributors 1 Introduction Stephen’s Story Elin’s Story Pam’s Story Shelly’s Story Jaye’s Story Our Common Story Multiple Literacies Movement Literacies Disciplinary Literacies Traditional School Literacies Multiple Literacies in SHAPE America and NDEO The Scope and Organization of the Book References I Conceptual Explorations of Multiple Literacies 2 The School Literacy Agenda: Traditional School Literacies Introduction What Is Literacy?
