TL;DR: The authors suggest that the term "dynamic literacies" could extend concepts in the new literacy studies to generate an inclusive, umbrella term which is inclusive enough to encompass the changing nature of meaning-making in the context of digital media and culture.
Abstract: Because this book is concerned with the issues around digital media and education, as seen through both a sociocultural and a political lens, we have chosen to begin by looking at the ways in which these issues are represented in recent definitions of ‘literacy’ which have been mobilised by a range of different theorists and interest groups. We will suggest that the term ‘dynamic literacies’ could extend concepts in the ‘new literacy studies’ to generate an inclusive, umbrella term which is inclusive enough to encompass the changing nature of meaning-making in the context of digital media and culture. As media educators, we understand that the ways in which an education system engages positively, negatively, or not at all with media texts and practices is framed by what is admissible in its formal structures and educational settings as ‘literacy’; any definition of literacy frames and defines pedagogy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the new issues arising for the politics of self-representation and personal photography in the era of social media, focusing particularly on the consequences of online image-sharing.
Abstract: Over the past couple of decades, the cultural field formerly known as ‘domestic’, and later ‘personal’ photography has been remediated and transformed as part of the social web, with its convergence of personal expression, interpersonal communication, and online social networks (most recently via platforms like Flickr, Facebook and Twitter). Meanwhile, the Digital Storytelling movement (involving the workshop-based production of short autobiographical videos) from its beginnings in the mid 1990s relied heavily on the narrative power of the personal photograph, often sourced from family albums, and later from online archives. This paper addresses the new issues arising for the politics of self-representation and personal photography in the era of social media, focusing particularly on the consequences of online image-sharing. It discusses in detail the practices of selection, curation, manipulation and editing of personal photographic images among a group of activist-oriented queer digital storytellers who have in common a stated desire to share their personal stories in pursuit of social change, and whose stories often aim to address both intimate and antagonistic publics.
