Innovations and Challenges in Digital Literacies questions whether the current theoretical frameworks and pedagogical practices around digital literacies are sufficient to confront the technological, social and political crises around digital media that we are experiencing today.Drawing on extensive research in digital literacies, discourse analysis, and sociotechnical systems, Jones reimagines digital literacies not simply as skills for making meaning and navigating information but as a more holistic project of figuring out how to ‘fix’ what is ‘broken’ about the internet and our broader societies. The book focuses on seven key ‘sites of repair’—action, attention, affect, affinity, visibility, truth, and humanity— each site offering insights into how agency, emotions, relationships, knowledge, and ‘intelligence’ emerge through our entanglements with digital technologies. Digital Literacies aims to provoke debate about how we define digital literacies in an age of political polarisation and rapid technological change. It provides powerful tools for teaching, learning, and living more ethically with digital media.With this book, Jones invites readers to see themselves not just as users of digital technology, but as fixers of broken systems—and caretakers of our increasingly fragile world. This approach provides a framework for educators, students, and researchers to collaboratively develop practical strategies to challenge the logics of technological and social systems, cultivating new literacies for an age of online misinformation, algorithmic governance, and generative AI.

This accessible and entertaining textbook introduces students to both traditional and more contemporary approaches to sociolinguistics in a real-world context, addressing current social problems that students are likely to care about, such as racism, inequality, political conflict, belonging, and issues around gender and sexuality. Each chapter includes exercises, case studies and ideas for small-scale research projects, encouraging students to think critically about the different theories and approaches to language and society, and to interrogate their own beliefs about language and communication. The book gives students a grounding in the traditional concepts and techniques upon which sociolinguistics is built, while also introducing new developments from the last decade, such as translanguaging, multimodality, superdiversity, linguistic landscapes and language and digital media. Students will also have online access to more detailed examples, links to video and audio files, and more challenging exercises to strengthen their skills and confidence as sociolinguists.

Mit der Ausbeutung der nat rlichen Ressourcen f r Landwirtschaft und Viehzucht geht der Verlust der einheimischen W lder und Galeriew lder in Brasilien einher. Ziel des Buches war die Durchf hrung von Studien zur Wiederherstellung der degradierten Fl chen in den Galeriew ldern von Ribeir o S o Jo o in der Gemeinde Palmas - TO und die Bewertung der Anfangsphase dieser Wiederherstellung. Um die nat rliche Regeneration zu unterst tzen, haben wir durch die Anreicherung von Arten Setzlinge von einheimischen Pflanzen verwendet, die an die Umweltbedingungen und den St rungsgrad des ausgew hlten Gebiets angepasst sind. Das Gebiet verf gt ber noch vorhandene Arten, ein grundlegender Faktor f r die Etablierung einer Begr nung mit Eigenschaften, die dem Anfangsstadium nahe kommen. Es wurde festgestellt, dass die Arten Inga sp., Enterolobium contortisiliquum und Pouteria macrophilla durch die Artenanreicherung gute berlebensraten haben und auch ohne besondere Bodenbehandlung eine schnelle Bodenbedeckung gew hrleisten.

With the exploitation of natural resources for agriculture and livestock, the loss of native forests and gallery forests in Brazil occurs. The book aimed to conduct studies on the recovery of degraded area in the gallery forests of Ribeir o S o Jo o, located in the municipality of Palmas - TO and evaluate the initial stage of this recovery. Through the Enrichment of Species, to assist natural regeneration, we used seedlings of native plants that were suitable to the conditions imposed by the environment and the degree of disturbance of the chosen area. The area has species remaining, a fundamental factor for the establishment of a revegetation with characteristics close to its initial stage. It was noted that the species Inga sp., Enterolobium contortisiliquum and Pouteria macrophilla have good survival rates through species enrichment, as well as providing rapid soil cover, even without special soil treatment.
