As a current doctoral student fortunate to learn all about new literacies and multimodality from Dr. Connors in present day, this is a #literacies celebration indeed!

AERA Writing & Literacies SIG @writinglit.bsky.social · 1d

Who else remembers chatting all things multimodality in Oct. 2012 w/ Drs. Sean Connors (profconnors.bsky.social), Darren Crovitz, Michael Manderino (mmanderino.bsky.social), and Ryan Rish (ryanrish.bsky.social) ?!
We can't wait to celebrate how everyone's work has evolved at #literacies HOMECOMING!
