Description
The Comfort of Screens investigates the evolving relationship between literacy and technology in contemporary society. As digital devices have become integral to daily life, traditional understandings of literacy have shifted dramatically. Rowsell and Sandor analyze how screens provide both practical communication tools and emotional comfort to users across generations.
The authors examine multimodal literacy practices, examining how meaning-making has expanded beyond text to include images, videos, and interactive content. They consider the implications for education, social connection, and cultural understanding in an increasingly screen-mediated world.
This work challenges conventional literacy frameworks while acknowledging the legitimate concerns about screen dependency. By exploring the postdigital landscape, the book offers insights into how literacy practices continue to evolve and what skills are essential for thriving in contemporary society.
