Summary: This book critically reviews essential approaches to literacy research and practice in the digital age while showing the relationships between these vital paradigms. This indispensable volume also introduces sensory literacies - a new approach with powerful potential for today's learning environments. Bringing together six essential approaches to literacy research and educational practice, this work outlines powerful and accessible theories, including socio-cultural, critical, multimodal, socio-spatial, socio-material and sensory literacies. The sensory literacies approach constitutes an original and visionary contribution to the field, coupled with a provocative foreword from sensory anthropologist David Howes. This dynamic collection explores a legacy of literacy research while showing the relationships between each paradigm, highlighting their complementarity and distinctions, to inspire researchers and teachers to explore new frontiers of thought and practice in times of diversity and technological change
