Camus, 29000 Quimper Résumé: 150-200 mots Abstract: In this article, we compare three projects about mapping digital-, media- and information literacyin France. For this study, we first used the concept of “apparatus” in Foucauldian (1977) and Agambenian sense (2009). After this analysis, we calledon Bachelard(1932) and his distinction between phénoménotechnique and phénoménographie. The first project began in 2006 around a professional association (Fadben: http://www.fadben.asso.fr/), with the main goal being to distinguish 64 main concepts in information literacy. This work is now completed, and we can observe it quietly through publications.

  • Brian Bannon, Distinguished Alumnus 2015 We Make Information Work
    Fall 2015 we make information work ischool.uw.edu Dean’s Message — Page 2 Donor Honor Roll — Pages 8 & 9 Alumni Updates — Page 10 Brian Bannon, Distinguished Alumnus 2015 By Clark Heideger Library where he was the general manager for the neighborhood library system. Making strides towards innovation in the Bay Area, six years later, Bannon got a call from Chicago. At the time, Mayor Rahm Emanuel was looking for a new leader for the Chicago Public Library. “He was really interested in looking at ways of leveraging the unique mission and footprint of the library to be transformative as part of his new vision for the city,” said Bannon. Bannon got the job. And for three and a half years, he’s been serving as commissioner of the Chicago Public Libraries. And as the second largest library system in the country, CPL has a long track record for being an innovative library organization. When Bannon first started, the library was piloting a program called YOUmedia, a digital media program engaging teens in learning. Now he has helped operationalize the program as a central part of what CPL does to serve teens. “It represents for me the kind of library that would have been welcoming to me as a kid,” Bannon said. “The mission is really to connect people to Brian Bannon, the 2015 iSchool Distinguished Alumnus, considers himself ideas and knowledge to make a stronger and more competitive and an unlikely librarian. Dyslexic as a kid, he never felt fully at home in the democratic society. It was an insight into how libraries might lead the environment.

  • Information Transliteracy”?
    International Conference “Media and Information Literacy (MIL) for Knowledge Societies”, 24-28 June, 2012, Moscow, Russian Federation Can one speak of an “information transliteracy”? Vincent LIQUETE ( Bordeaux University – IMS/CNRS UMR 5218 [Human Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (Team CIH)] [email protected] / [email protected] Summary of paper: The issue of transliteracy in general and particularly informational transliteracy is increasingly being debated worldwide and from extremely varying perspectives. These concepts refer to highly varied cultural and professional realities and contexts. In this paper we will discuss three dimensions and issues. First, we will attempt to delineate the scope and range of current thinking by researchers in information and communication sciences in France with regard to informational transliteracy, and present its four main components. Second, we will lay the claim that the informational transliteracy approach goes beyond the “Media and Information Literacies (MIL)” approach, in particular by giving all due importance to issues related to learning with computers, i. e. “computation”. Finally, we will present some new thinking that is currently being implemented in the French education system and will present some research projects involving informational transliteracy (LIMIN-R project, Translit project, etc.). Key words: Transliteracy / Information culture / French educative system / Informational practice /Competencie / Forward For twenty years now, the notions of information literacy and thereafter Translitteracy have been the subject of a wide range of definitions and an extensive scientific literature, especially in the Anglo-Saxon world. We will attempt during this presentation to demonstrate some of the main dimensions in terms of skills and attitudes in the various literacies that are giving rise to the new forms of training and support required in the future.

  • Pretty Bullets: Tracing Transmedia/Translingual Literacies of an Israeli Soldier Across Regimes of Practice
    FRAIBERG / PRETTY BULLETS Steven Fraiberg Pretty Bullets: Tracing Transmedia/Translingual Literacies of an Israeli Soldier across Regimes of Practice Tracing the literacy practices of an Israeli soldier, this case study examines how his engagement in multilingual and multimodal (MML) composing affects his ways of thinking about and doing literacy. It specifically attends to how MML practices dispose writers to certain orientations to reading, writing, speaking, and design. I first encountered the twenty-five-year-old combat veteran DaVe (his literary pseudonym; it is pronounced “Dave”) as part of a wider study on transnational literacies within Israeli society. He had completed his three years of military service as a soldier in the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces), and his military identity was densely intertwined with his literate identity. This was evidenced by the poems, jottings, drawings, and novels-in-progress from his backpack and leather pouch that he called his “kit bag” (IDF jargon for military gear). Woven into this mix was a range of other props or artifacts coordinated as part of his “identity kit” (Gee, Social 142) that he would set on the table for discussion: a bullet casing, thread for cleaning the bar- CCC 69:1 / SEPTEMBER 2017 87 h87-117-Sept17-CCC.indd 87 9/6/17 7:32 AM CCC 69:1 / SEPTEMBER 2017 rel of his M-16 grenade launcher, pocket knife, multisided dice, tattered Jerusalem bus station time schedule, military identification card, military issued notebooks, and Dungeons and Dragons (D & D) character sheets. In this study, I examine the ways that he would weave and reweave these complex assemblages into his literacy practices and even more broadly into his literate life.

  • Understanding How Transliteracy Practices Contribute to Grade Three
    Shifting Transliteracies in Elementary School: Understanding How Transliteracy Practices Contribute to Grade Three Students’ Construction of Meaning by Jacqueline L. Filipek A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Elementary Education University of Alberta © Jacqueline L. Filipek, 2020 Abstract Situated within social constructivist understandings of multiliteracies, this eight-month ethnographic study explored transliteracy practices in a grade three classroom. The intention of this research was to conduct an ethnographic case study to understand how digital and multiliteracies support the ways children construct meaning through transliteracy practices in elementary school. Findings revealed that transliteracy, using both digital and analog technologies across modes, media, genres, and platforms, is an effective lens to understand the shifting literacy practices of young 21st-century learners. Transliteracy is described in relation to four understandings of literacy: critical transliteracy, digital transliteracy, social transliteracy, and disciplinary transliteracy. Understandings and implications of a transliteracy mindset are articulated in their contributions to scholarship and pedagogy and through descriptive examples of transliteracy in the classroom. This study contributes to growing conceptual understandings of transliteracy and supports the fluid nature of transliterate learning. It promotes the use of multiliteracies, student choice, and opportunities to use more than one mode, device, or platform simultaneously at school. Canadian students constantly face many choices in literacies, thus, being transliterate becomes significant to their literacy education. ii Preface This thesis is an original work by Jacqueline Filipek. The research project, of which this thesis is a part, received research ethics approval from the University of Alberta Research Ethics Board, “An Ethnographic Study of How Multiliteracies Support Transliteracy In Primary School” No.
