This text focuses on the story of a professor and her student.  It goes through the digital literacy history of that student. It analyzes the impacts on communities of color and frankly all marginalized communities-- in the traditional college classroom. The case study’s student of focus actually ended up being suspended from his university, and Selfe notes that this is largely because of his inability to write a paper in traditional parameters. but that had professors embraced digital literacies which the student was fluent in-- the same outcome would potentially not be likely. 

Selfe’s observations are centered in critical literacy theory, and yet they also seem to lean towards a constructivist style of teaching. She notes the impact of the socioeconomic, race, and cultural factors in the literacy of this particular student. She also highlights the resilliency of that student despite the tumultuous childhood that he experienced when she meticulously reiterates how he has taught himself how to be literate in digital technology-- design in particular. 

I also think that it speaks to a larger issue, and that is not necessarily the inclusion or disinclusion of technology in the university classroom, but rather the failure of professors to be educated in pedagogy itself. Professors tend to focus on an outdated form of teaching in the university setting-- they lecture, the student reads, and a written response shows that they understand. This is not common in the primary and secondary education though.  Teachers in primary and secondary education lean in to classrooms that embrace multiple intelligences, and they design choice projects, a variety of projects, and multiple assessment modes for their students. 

ROSA CRUX - SILICA (2017)

Con percusiones tribalistas y loops gigantes Rosa Crux hace un debut practicamente impecable, en medio de la tristeza, la nostalgía y la decepción de la vida, este dúo parece retomar sus raices mas salvajes y transformarlas en una electrónica exótica para la pista de baile. Parecen un bastardo de Aphex Twin y Fela Kuti. Nada raro para estos tiempos.
