Arguing that composition should renew its interest in reading pedagogy and research, Chasing Literacy offers writing instructors and literacy scholars a framework for understanding and responding to the challenges posed by the proliferation of interactive and multimodal communication technologies in the twenty-first century. Employing case-study research of student reading practices, Keller explores reading-writing connections in new media contexts. He identifies a culture of acceleration -- a gathering of social, educational, economic, and technological forces that reinforce the values of speed, efficiency, and change -- and challenges educators to balance new faster literacies with traditional slower literacies. In addition, Keller details four significant features of contemporary literacy that emerged from his research: accumulation and curricular choices; literacy perceptions; speeds of rhetoric; and speeds of reading. This book outlines a new reading pedagogy that will help students gain versatile, dextrous approaches to both reading and writing and makes a significant contribution to this emerging area of interest in composition theory and practice.
