LITERACIES
Literacy is defined by dictionaries as the state of
being able to read ang write.

It generally believed that such traditional definition


no longer suffices in the information age.

We will try to get a through understanding of literacy


and it’s past nuances so that we will get solid
foundation in exploring ang discussing the new
literacies is now mandatory for teacher and students.
The world of literacy comes from the world literacy
which in turns derives from the world literacy
meaning.

- person marked with letters, meaning


distinguished or identified by letters - and It carried
the ideas that such a person was cultured and
education.
Since the subject of the time (grammar, logic,
arithmetic, geometry) all had written text which
were of course composed of letters that had to be
studied the ability to read and write was therefore
of prime importance, leading to the strong
associated of being literate with the ability to read
and write.
Miller (1973) divides this conventional concept of literacy into three-
categories:

►1. Basic literacy - ability to correspond visual shapes to spoken sound in


order to decode written materials and translate them into oral language.
Simply put, is the ability to recognize letters and words. This would be akin
to recognizing that the sequence of letters "b-a-s-a" forms the word
basa.in filipino, even without understanding what means.

2.Comprehension Literacy- ability to understand the meaning of what is


being read. This would be like knowing that basa can mean "to read" or
"to be wet."
►3. Functional or Practical Literacy- The ability
to read (decode and comprehend) written
materials needed to perform everyday
vocational task. Ex: Reading "Ang bata ay nag
babasa" and being able to understand that basa
here refers to reading and not to being wet.
TWO THINGS TO NOTICE FROM MILLER'S
DEFINITION:

►1. A text (consisting of symbols and grammar) to be read.

►2. A meaning or message being communicated by the text for


the reader to extract.
EXPANDED VIEWS OF LITERACY
EXPANDED VIEWS OF LITERACY

Despite the popularity of American films in the


Philippines, many Filipinos cannot follow the actors
dialogue, and thus resort to guessing the overall
story based on the actions onscreen.
In 2004, UNESCO formally defined
literacy as the ability to identify,
understand, interpret, create,
communicate, and compute, using
printed and written materials
associated with varying contexts.
Literacy involves a continuum of learning
in enabling individuals to achieve their
goals, to develop their knowledge and
potential, and to participate fully in their
community and wider society.
Note that "reading" does not appear in
UNESCO's definition of literacy. Instead,
literacy has taken on a definition more
akin to "knowing about something and
what to do with it."
This shift in the definition of literacy from
"reading and writing" to "knowledge" is
especially important as we explore the
"new" literacies of the 21st century that
seem far-removed from the contexts upon
which conventional literacy is based.
LITERACY IN THE 21 CENTURY
ST
LITERACY IN THE 21ST CENTURY

When viewed from the perspective of


conventional/traditional literacy. the concept of
"new" literacies is a bit of a misnomer, as even
these new literacies of the 21st century make
generous use of being able to read and write.
In the same vein of reasoning, the new literacies are not
"new" per se- as in the sense that they never existed
before. Rather, we consider them to be new because the
contexts in which old skills and knowledge are being
employed are new.

Example: The ability to translate textual Information into


images is not a new skill.
HISTORY
By the ancient Chinese, the ancient Greek, and the
indigenous people’s of America they use signal smoke as a
distance communication

In the Victorian Era


They used “LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS” where the kind,
color, and arrangement of a bouquet of flowers were used
to communicate messages
EXAMPLE:

A bouquet of Oak leaves- mean’s STRENGTH

A bouquet of Purple Roses- mean’s SORROW

A bouquet of White Lilies- mean’s RESURRECTION

A bouquet of Pale Yellow Tulips and Rosemary-


mean’s MEMORY OR REMEMBRANCE.
THE DIFFERENCE OF HISTORY, VICTORIAN ERA, AND
NEW LITERACIES

HISTORY- They use smoke signals as a long distance communication.

VICTORIAN ERA- They used bouquet of flowers to communicate


messages.

NEW LITERACIES- They used Technologies for communication.


Technologies like blogging and vlogging, social networking, and text
messaging.
THREE THINGS HAVE BEEN CRITICAL IN
THE RISE OF THE NEW LITERACY
THREE THINGS HAVE BEEN CRITICAL IN THE
RISE OF THE NEW LITERACY

1. Increased Reach
2. Increased Means of Communication
3. Increased Breadth of Content
INCREASED REACH

We are communicating with more people, from more


diverse cultures, across vaster distances than ever before.

INCREASED MEANS OF COMMUNICATION


We are communicating in more ways and at faster speeds
than ever before.
INCREASED BREADTH OF CONTENT

We are communicating about more things than ever before.

NEW LITERACIES ARE REQUIRED NOT ONLY TO MAKE SENSE OF


THE CHANGES, BUT ALSO TO USE THESE NEW TECHNOLOGIES
AND PARADIGMS IN MEANINGFUL AND PRODUCTIVE WAYS
SOMETHING REQUIRED NOT ONLY OF STUDENTS, BUT OF
TEACHERS AS WELL.
NEW LITERACIES
*Globalization and Multicultural Literacy

*Social and Financial Literacy

*Media and Cyber/ Digital Literacies

*Ecoliteracy and Artistic and Creative Literacy

*Critical Literacy

GLOBALIZATION AND MULTICULTURAL LITERACY


Globalization and Multicultural Literacy

Discusses how our increasing ability to


communicate with almost anyone,
anywhere, in real time.
SOCIAL AND FINANCIAL LITERACY

Explores the need for the ability to navigate our own


social networks - of both the online and offline-
variety – to not only communicate clearly, but also
to leverage resources which we ourselves might not
possess.
MEDIA AND CYBER/ DIGITAL LITERACIES

Explore the emerging need to locate, verify


and ultimately manage online information,
especially in an age where information is
power and where having the right and wrong
information and the ability to
communicate it with others and use it to
address real world problems easily spell
the difference between both personal and
career success and failure.
ECOLITERACY AND ARTISTIC AND CREATIVE
LITERACY

Explore the emerging demands for knowing how to


effectively and sustainably manage the natural
resources that our industrialization and demands
for productivity are so rapidly eating up.
One of the way’s student can be trained in the
new literacy is to engage then in digital
storytelling , wherein the students take part in
the traditions process of storytelling, but with
some digital enhancements.
Digital storytelling can be broken down int the
following six steps:
1. Writing - Write about a particular story from your life. The story
must have a central theme.

2. Developing a script – Develop a script that identifies the


important points of yours story.

3. creating a storyboard – Create a storyboard that visually


organizes the flow of the story. Assign a particular image to portions
of the script .
4. Locating Multimedia – Use search engines to locate photos
and videos. Photos and videos from one’s personal collection
may also be used.

5. Creating the Digital Story – Record the voice over for your
movies. Create the movie using the software that is available to
you.

6. Sharing and uploading – Share your story in class and


upload your work online.
REFLECTION:
*Traditional literacy is the ability to read and write.
*The traditional or conventional concept of literacy can be divided into sub-categories:
1. Basic Literacy, which is the ability to recognize letters and words:

2.Comprehension Literacy, which is the ability to understand the meaning


of what is being read: and

3.Functional/Practical Literacy, which is the ability to read written material


needed to perform everyday vocational tasks.
*Modern views of literacy equate it with knowledge.

*New literacies have risen due to increased reach, increased means of communication, and
increased breadth of content . These new literacy, social and financial literacy, media and
cyber/digital literacy. Artistic and creative literacy, and critical literacy.
