Produktbeschreibung
This book provides a systematic exploration of family literacy, including its historic origins, theoretical expansion, practical applications within the field, and focused topics within family literacy. Grounded in sociocultural approaches to learning and literacy, the book covers research on how families use literacy in their daily lives as well as different models of family literacy programs and interventions that provide opportunities for parent-child literacy interactions and that support the needs of children and parents as adult learners. Chapters discuss key topics, including the roles of race, ethnicity, culture, and social class in family literacy; digital family literacies; family-school relationships and parental engagement in schools; fathers' involvement in family literacy; accountability and employment; and more. Throughout the book, Lynch and Prins share evidence-based literacy practices and highlight examples of successful family literacy programs. Acknowledging lingering concerns, challenges, and critiques of family literacy, the book also offers recommendations for research, policy, and practice. Accessible and thorough, this book comprehensively addresses family literacies and is relevant for researchers, scholars, graduate students, and instructors and practitioners in language and literacy programs.

Rezensionen
"This scholarly work offers critical review of what family literacy looks like and the many programs designed to promote it. A panoptic work spanning the history of family literacy in a manner which is accessible and erudite, it traces family literacy from early studies in the 1980s to present day, opening up new avenues to explore."

-- Cathy Nutbrown, University of Sheffield, UK

"This book is important, relevant, and purposeful. It represents an engaging plethora of groundbreaking work about and with all families across various spheres of influence. The authors force us to question how the changing ways and roles of family literacy, its programs, and practices have not only changed the dynamics of how we "do," "talk about," and "study" family literacy, but also how family literacy can equip families to flourish in research, practice, and policy across schools, communities, programs, even during a pandemic."
