See a question from tonight’s chat and eager to share your thoughts? It’s never too late! Feel free to keep the chat going!
Be sure to check out our latest Inquiring Minds podcast from From Story to System: Teaching Literacy Across Contexts at www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZ6K... #literacies
Please join us for our March 3/31 #literacies chat with @ryanschey.bsky.social on places and spaces in literacies education.
A6: Perhaps, a 'Victorious Future' is one wherein we, as individuals & collectives, remain committed to asking "Whose future? Who is benefitting? Who isn't? What needs to change to remedy this?" and continually refine the structures, systems, and practices that move society forward #literacies
Thank you again to @elpatronhimself.bsky.social for hosting our February #literacies chat!
Q6: I see a vision in which our research enables all kids to get to experience victories/"win" as they practice #literacies, and a vision where we can see more clearly what victory looks like from their perspectives.

A6: Thinking back to our opening question, I think a "Victorious Future" must necessarily be a co-constructed one, a future that, much like the good ole Fortnite gaming lobby, is made by a multitudinous mix of folks, all doing our own dances yet working toward the same #victory. #literacies
A6 1/2: I think of Toni Morrison’s quote that the purpose of racism is distraction. I think “Victorious Futures” in this sociopolitical context means not merely reacting but continuing long-term proactive building of power and resources for the flourishing of minoritized communities. #literacies
I'm curious about how transnational gaming not only creates translingual spaces but also spacing to develop sociocultural competency through dialogue. #literacies
This slide reads: " Q6: In the foreword to our book, Antero Garcia invites us to envision “Victorious Futures.” What would such a vision look like for #literacies research and advocacy?"

What would such a vision look like for #literacies research and advocacy?

A5 (pt 2): Also. Something that just struck me. As someone still playing #PokemonGo like it’s 2016, I am wondering about the affects of gaming on the go, especially on mobile phones. What #literacies are practiced when gaming is mediated between the digital and physical world?
Q5: I am really interested in the power-laden ways AI (e.g., AI 'agents') is shaping the world of gaming, and as a result, youth's gaming #literacies.
A5: As a gamer infinitely engrossed in any and all character creation processes, I would be very interested in the #literacies and language practices to be explored specific to how students and gamers intentionally make and remake themselves at this preliminary stage 👀
A5: My biggest suggestion? Look where the youth are gaming and follow them there! Almost a decade ago, I was teasing my high school students for their fascination with a new game called "Fortnite." Now, I play all the time. #literacies
Q4: Working with @amystorn.bsky.social and Kathy Walsh to design the "Open World Writing" framework has shaped how I approach writing in all aspects of my life, not just academic writing. Heuristics/thinking tools matter. www.openworldwriting.com #literacies.
A4 1/2: I come from a hyper-individualistic culture, but working with my advisor Dr. Jerome Morris with his Communally Bonded Theory of education plus reading about multilingualism as ecological has influenced the way I think about creating healthy relationships and systems. #literacies
This slide reads: "Q5: Time to welcome the #literacies community to #TeamLaV: Our team is now looking at the next quests to look at gaming and expand the LaV Framework. Where should #TeamLaV start digging next? What quests in gaming and #literacies should we undertake?"

Where should #TeamLaV start digging next? What quests in gaming and #literacies should we undertake?
[Book Spoiler Alert] We actually tap into that engagement with gaming in Chapter 7, through Taty's account of being a #gamermom #literacies

Q5 coming up in 1 min... #literacies
Equally important here is how second-language English users in gaming spaces are not just "speaking" the language, but reclaiming it for themselves. #literacies
I think one of the key elements here is the possibilities for language reinvention that happen in these "zero gravity" spaces! Gamers as second-language users mold the language in increasingly creative ways, for example. #literacies
A3. I love how Raúl and his team are working to center languages and linguistic repertoires beyond the primacy of English in gaming spaces. It’s important to interrogate how English is reified through the private, monetized corporate infrastructure of popular gaming! #literacies
This slide reads: "Q4: We devoted two chapters in our book to talk about how the LaV Framework had influenced #TeamLaV members in their lives. How have the frameworks you and your teams built influenced your world views and your inner circles beyond research?"

A3: While there are a plethora of reasons why this is important for #literacies consideration, I see how prominently we would be missing students' authentic literacy and language practices if we were to ignore these engagements
Q3: In my experiences researching online communities, language, access, and power are always in some way mediating the literate activities taking place (e.g., digital writers drafting in different languages to reach different audiences). As #literacies researchers, it's our job to follow that.
Spoiler alert for Dr. Berry’s upcoming book, but brilliant and enticing point to ponder. We’re excited to learn more! #literacies #victory
