Civic Literacy, Volume 3: Building Civic Futures in Teacher Education

The Civic Literacy series showcases how the knowledges, skills, and commitments of English language arts can explore traditional understandings of “civic education” and in its place offer creative possibilities for civic world-building in K–12 classrooms and communities.

This, the third volume of the series, features contributions from educators, researchers, and students to explore:

  • The transformative role of civic education in ELA classrooms and teacher preparation programs;
  • How to incorporate an antiracist pedagogy and a disability-informed approach in the classroom;
  • How focusing on social justice, critical literacy, and activism can help you develop learners who will one day become good citizens;
  • How to navigate book bans and censorship in the literacy classroom;
  • How to cultivate a community culture through youth participatory action research.

The essays in the Civic Literacy volumes share innovative stories and strategies of how literacy has been leveraged by youth, teachers, and community members to imagine and enact equitable social futures. The first volume focuses on the future-oriented civic literacy learning taking place in K–12 classrooms. The second volume examines the transformative learning that occurs in out-of-school informal literacy learning environments.
