TL;DR: The role of haptics and locomotion in literacy education is explored in this article, where a white academic with an Indigenous researcher is shown how the forgotten role of the hands and feet in dominant theories of communication is central to Indigenous identity and literacies.
Abstract: This chapter reports original research that asks the question: What are the ways of knowing, being, and communicating that are valued and practiced in Indigenous communities? Literacy curricula, internationally and nationally, typically do not take into account the multi-sensorial dimensions of non-Western forms of representation that go beyond narrow conceptions of print. For example, literacies are often conceived as drawing on print, visual, spatial, gestural, and audio modes, but the role of haptics and locomotion has typically received little attention. This chapter highlights examples of the multi-sensoriality of Indigenous literacies observed in participatory community research with an Indigenous school. It extends recent theories of sensory studies in the history and cultural anthropology of the senses, applying these principles to literacy education. Sensory literacies is a theoretical perspective that gives priority to the sensorial dimensions of the body and its role in communication in literacy practice, because without a sensing body, we cannot know about or communicate with the world. The data demonstrates how the forgotten role of the hands and feet in dominant theories of communication is central to Indigenous identity and literacies. Written by a white academic with an Indigenous researcher, the chapter problematises the privileging of narrow, logocentric, and Western forms of literacy and its implications for rethinking the role of the whole body in literacy and the literacy curriculum for Indigenous students.

  • ...Jewitt (2009) states that multimodal theory is based on four key theoretical assumptions: language is part of a multimodal ensemble, it is not the only nor the most important mode; each mode realizes different communicative work, in other words, enables different forms of cognition; people orchestrate meaning through their selection and configuration of modes; the meanings of signs are social, they vary in different settings, periods and according to the social group of the individuals. Theo Van Leeuwen (2005) posits “social semiotics compares and contrasts semiotic modes, exploring what they have in common as well as how they differ, and investigating how...
