Applied framework

By asserting critical literacy into these elite spaces, we can interrupt the normalization of eurocentric curriculum; liberate students whose identities have been marginalized and raise awareness of students in dominant groups.
In cultivating critical literacy and decolonizing my classroom, I found the framework Rogers and Wetzel (2014) provided most useful in developing my curriculum. Rogers and Wetzel divide critical literacy into three major traditions: genre approaches, multiple literacy approaches, and social justice approaches. I found that these approaches are not mutually exclusive and are rather intersectional. Rogers and Wetzel  argue that at the heart of critical literacy is inquiry into power, language and identity. In my practice, these translate to perspective taking, reflecting on one’s identity in relation to the material and reflective action.
