W8 Q1 | Discussion

Research on students' online reading strategies (e.g., Coiro) is just one of a series of important but complex and controversial topics that educational researchers have investigated in the sub-field of technology, literacy, and new literacies (e.g., Tierney). Drawing on your reading of the articles that highlight the literacy debates raging today (e.g., Rich, Tierney, Coiro) critically reflect on the 'literacies' you feel scholar-teachers need to develop to work in modern day work environments, which typically include a blend of teaching and research. Provide evidence from the readings to support your points. Feel free to draw on empirical evidence from these readings in addition to other studies with which you may be familiar.
