Editor

Sailing the Seas of Literacies With scattered notes textbooks and a cup of coffee within arm’s reach, I started reading my prerequisite material online. Upon completing “Turkle’s Triumph of Thinking”, I found myself momentarily lost in thought.

Community resilience encompasses social, economic, and ecological dimensions. It is built…
