Mothering And Literacies, Amanda Richey, Linda Evans
Mothering And Literacies, Amanda Richey, Linda Evans
Linda S. Evans
This collection explores the connections between mothering/motherhood and literacy as it is broadly defined. Literacy, in this case, encompasses reading/writing literacy as well as multimodal, new or digital, and contested multiliteracies that are socioculturally situated and contextually defined. Mothers are often the object of cultural and popular discourses on family literacy, as well as targets in international campaigns to increase literacy learning.

From Distance Education To Communities Of Inquiry: A Review Of Historical Developments, Aylin Tekiner Tolu, Linda Evans
Linda S. Evans
The purpose of this chapter is to explain the role and place of the Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework within the history of distance education. The review of the history reveals two important factors for changes in distance education: the effect of leading learning theories of each era and technological advancements. Distance education has moved from a behavioristic, teacher–centered, correspondence study concept, first to an independent learning model, and then to the current student-centered, socio-constructivist and community-based online learning.
