Post-Literacy: The Past and Future of Ideas
Wednesday, October 20, 2004 | 11:30AM–12:20PM | Meeting Room 103
Session Type:
Professional Development
Just as literacy has displaced oral cultures, this presentation will speculate about the nature and characteristics of a "post-literate" capability that would displace literacy. Post-literacy will be imagined in terms of the development of new tools as well as the evolution of humans and human capabilities.
