Literacy Call for Papers Exploring the potential of creative pedagogies and literacies to empower learners What does empowerment and agency through literacy look like in the multicultural classroom? bell hooks (1994) argued that educators should make their classrooms pleasurable places where learning should be responsive and empowering. Learners should actively participate and make meaning holistically - through emotional, cognitive and embodied modes that reflect their realities (Rook, 2024). The need for the effective use of creative pedagogies in the classroom and beyond has been amplified by global policy makers including the UNESCO Futures of Education report (2021) and OECD Futures Of Education (2019).

How might we as educators activate these relational literacies in the classroom? https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal/17414369/call-for-papers/creative-pedagogies
