Talk, Text and Technology - Literacy and Social Practice in a Remote Indigenous Community

This is an ethnography of language, learning and literacy in remote Indigenous Australia. It traces one group from the introduction of alphabetic literacy to the arrival of digital literacies. It examines social, cultural and linguistic practices across the generations and addresses the implications for language and literacy socialisation.
