Literacy as a social practice in a district. An ethnographic theory for basic education practice
In German-speaking countries, the theoretical discussion on literacy work is characterised far more by a focus on deficits than is the Anglo-Saxon debate. This article narrows this theoretical gap by adopting Barton & Hamilton’s ethnographic research approach to local literacies for an empirical investigation into literacy practices. The project presented here studies how and why reading and writing are used, based on a district of Hamburg. As well as observations of writing in public spaces, there are also interviews and discussions with multipliers. The investigation creates a theoretical framework for literacy work based on people’s life-world; a type of work which has long been on the agenda in practice.
