Do you sleep woman? You know how I feel about the paper cut. Marvleous! I looked up your website, paperfang. It was exciting to see how you connected our literacy work with Obama's elction. I viewed your other paper cuts as well. "Don't Kill the Kids" was particularly chilling. I am amazed at how you can mix in the colour, only in sections and add such drama to the effect. I also read your response. Your line, "literacy as an agent of soocial change" struck a chord. I will write it down. I will refelct on it. The message is so much more compelling to me than Finn insisting we get organized and get active. There is a subtlty to your suggestion that moves me to believe change can happen, as a matter of consciousness, if we all contiune to work towards it in our own ways. Thanks, Julia, for the inspiration.<BR/>Cathy<BR/>PS If you have a paper cut Christmas card on literacy- I also will buy it! willmastershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07170862279070123584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064465428151872213.post-27310311446183220942008-10-27T13:25:00.000-07:002008-10-27T13:25:00.000-07:00Hi Julia. I enjoyed reading through your respnses...Hi Julia. I enjoyed reading through your respnses to the readings in Workshop 2. I particularly liked the point you made about new literacies and being critically literate. While we want critically literate individuals we cannot assume that this is necessarily going to make them nice individuals. We wanted technologically suave citizen too, and look what we got -- louts who use the computer for their own ends to make the world yet another degree more unjust.<BR/><BR/>I was marveling at your paper cutout again just now. How about you do us a literacy Christmas Card? I think that would be sensational and it would solve my having to come up with my own design.<BR/><BR/>Peace.<BR/><BR/>JCHarsteJCHarstehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12087323679079139004noreply@blogger.com
