Description: Literacy With an Attitude : Educating Working-Class Children in Their Own Self-Interest, Paperback by Finn, Patrick J., ISBN 1438428065, ISBN-13 9781438428062, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US This tenth anniversary edition updates and expands this important contribution to the ongoing debate about literacy education. Finn (emeritus, education, U. of Buffalo, State University of New York) now maintains that everyone has the right to 'powerful literacy,' ., an empowering literacy beyond functional literacy that can lead to positions of authority. He describes how teachers are making, and can be trained to make, this civil right work for students who may exhibit 'oppositional identity' in feeling wronged by mainstream society.
