Offering a fresh perspective on adult English language education, this comprehensive book delves into the integration of digital literacies into learning programs for newly arrived adults from migrant and refugee backgrounds. Through an in-depth ethnographic study of Langfield, an adult community-based English language center, the author explores the approach to teaching digital literacies and presents a diverse range of perspectives, including those of the adult learners, teachers, and the organization's CEO. The chapters offer a holistic view of teaching digital literacies within the adult English language context, examining the digital literacy practices of adult learners in their everyday lives and their learning experiences at Langfield. They also explore teachers' beliefs and practices regarding digital literacies, as well as the support provided to them through institutional resources, leadership, and professional learning.
The book identifies exemplary practices and areas for further development in Langfield's work, providing valuable insights into the strengths and needs of this unique and complex education sector. Addressing a gap in research and practice, particularly for researchers, practitioners, leaders, and policy makers working in community-based learning contexts in Australia and internationally, this book serves as an essential resource.
Written in a detailed yet accessible style, the book contributes significantly to the understanding of the challenges and opportunities in adult English language education. It sheds light on the importance of incorporating digital literacies into learning programs to empower adult learners from diverse backgrounds and prepare them for the digital age. By examining the experiences and perspectives of key stakeholders, Enhancing Digital Literacies with Adult English Language Learners offers valuable guidance for educators, policymakers, and researchers seeking to enhance the educational outcomes and well-being of this vulnerable population.
