Writing Community Change: Designing Technologies for Citizen ActionHampton Press, 2007 - 143 sider This is a book about how people use advanced information technologies to write for community change. The author argues that the work of citizenship is knowledge work - on the same order as that expected of workers in business and industry. The importance of this book is in the way it understands writing and technology, and the implications of these understandings for how we need to teach and learn with students. |
