Biography
Jennifer Rowsell holds a Canada Research Chair in Multiliteracies at Brock University, Canada. She is co-author of Design Literacies (Routledge, 2010) and co-editor of the Routledge Handbook of Literacy Studies (forthcoming).
‘A rare edited collection that is essential reading. We humans are par excellence meaning makers and today we have more ways to make meaning than ever before. Working with Multimodality maps the terrain with verve, passion, and a myriad of wonderful details.’
James Paul Gee, Arizona State University, USA
'Working with Multimodality is an intensely practical and an excitingly theoretical book. The author brings ‘intuitive’ practices into the descriptive range of theory. To practice she brings explicit accounts; to theory she brings a vastly enriched sense of the relation of materiality, embodiment and meaning.'
Gunther Kress, Institute of Education, UK
