BOOK EXCERPT:
In many places in the Western world, churchgoing is in decline and it cannot be assumed that people have a good grasp of the Bible’s content. In this evolving situation, how would “the person on the street” read the Bible? Reading the Bible Outside the Church begins to answer this question. David Ford spent ten months at a chemical industrial plant providing non-churchgoing men with the opportunity to read and respond to five different biblical texts. Using an in-depth qualitative methodology, he charts how their prior experiences of religion, sense of (non)religious identity, attitudes towards the Bible, and beliefs about the Bible all shaped the readings that occurred.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The global pandemic has caused devastating social and economic disruptions worldwide. These circumstances have widened and deepened the inequalities of access to socio-economic and academic achievement for diverse groups. This new reality compels us to look for possibilities of developing leadership and agency that will lead to transformation and hope in our communities. One of the ways to implement change is through the use of literacy practices. Utilizing diverse and innovative literacy approaches can allow for better access to educational opportunities and promote critical thinking, a better understanding of the world, and an awareness of others and self. Using Innovative Literacies to Develop Leadership and Agency: Inspiring Transformation and Hope presents multiple innovative literacy approaches that promote self-leadership and agency for individuals and communities. The work included showcases practical field experiences supported by a theoretical framework. Covering topics such as spatial literacy, digital storytelling, art literacy, and self-leadership, this premier reference source is an essential resource for business leaders and executives, community leaders, faculty and administrators of both K-12 and higher education, pre-service teachers, teacher educators, students of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Dialogic Readers: Children talking and thinking together about visual texts celebrates the sophisticated and dynamic discussions that primary-aged children can have as they talk together to make meaning from a variety of texts, and it highlights the potential for talk between readers as a tool for critical and creative thinking. It proposes a new dialogic theory of reading comprehension that incorporates multi-modal media and adds further weight to the argument that talk as a tool for learning should form a central part of primary classroom learning and teaching. The book explores: • the language of co-construction • children’s critical and creative responses to text • the dialogic transaction between text and readers • the use of language as a tool for creating a social cohesion between readers. This significant work is aimed at educational lecturers, researchers and students who want to explore an expanded notion of reading comprehension in the twenty-first century, realizing how opportunities for children thinking creatively together might transform the potential for learning in the classroom. It provides a framework for analyzing co-constructive talk with suggestions for promoting children’s critical and creative thinking.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The field of reading is a compelling one, characterised by many debates and discussions. It is also amenable to investigations through a range of theories and research studies. In this book, eight leading authorities provide a ‘state-of-the-art’ overview of reading, using perspectives that have informed their work. There are overviews from linguistic, psychological, sociological and literary viewpoints, as well as more hybrid ones from investigations of digital literacy and multi-modality. This book celebrates what has already been achieved by bridging research, scholarship and practice; it also suggests what still needs to be done to bring the positive rewards from reading to greater numbers of young people. It also recognises that the benefits of reading extend beyond the personal. Accomplished reading skills empower people to meet the challenges of everyday life: making decisions, solving problems, and dealing with unexpected events. The need to refresh and renew our knowledge of reading has gained further impetus in the ‘information age’. New technologies for information and communication continually appear: manifestations of ‘fake news’, disinformation and conspiracy theories spread rapidly across the globe. The book underlines the importance not only of reading, but also the fact that reading between and beyond the lines is more important than ever, in print and across multiple media platforms. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Education 3–13: International Journal of Primary, Elementary and Early Years Education.
