Guidelines for this reading:

The idea with this paper is to understand digital literacy using knowledge we already have experienced, namely traditional literacy. Vliegue takes us from there to what he considers is needed to become digitally literate to be able to understand and interact with a digitally mediated world. Think about these questions while you read:

1. What is the role of the 'grammatised body' presented in the paper and digital literacies?
2. Do you remember that painful process of learning how to read and write? The one that Gee is refering to in the paper? Reflect on your answer as to the why aspect of it.
3. How does that process can be analogous to digital literacy? Do you see that any of the activities we will be doing in the next weeks are related to improve your digital literacies?
