Recipient of the 2025 Divergent Award for Excellence in Literacy in a Digital Age Research Publication

Teaching Literacy Online (TLO) is a practical guide for secondary and college teachers of English in digital and online environments. Like other, practical, "how to teach online" books, TLO includes an overview of good practices and guidelines for teaching in digital environments and provides detailed suggestions and samples. The suggestions portion of the book focuses on applying the online teaching guidelines to literacy educators who are concerned about teaching literacies through

• digital organization;

• engagement with materials;

• analysis and synthesis of information; and

• the production of texts in a multitude of media and modalities.

By focusing on the engagement, analysis, and production of texts, TLO puts literacy pedagogy as the driving force when making decisions about how to teach online and/or with various digital applications.
