Reviewing NCTE Position Statement

The NCTE Position Statement on composing with non-print media in fact looks like it's been informed by many of the readings so far this semester. The statement itself focuses on the teaching of teachers (something we've seen suggested in the SoTL readings as well as Selfe's readings), the idea that we should be researching and being critical about the use of non-print media (Hawisher and Selfe; Selfe and Selfe), and issues of access (Selfe & Selfe, ECAR).  The statement promotes broadening the definition of literacy. This made me think of Ohmann actually simply because I wonder what the result of broadening the definition would be. Would it become something to solidify class status as he suggests, or is broadening the definition of literacy allowing those outside of the "power" class to have some say in the definition? Is participatory culture making the issues of access in forms other than monetary become obsolete? By creating things that serve your purpose, are you able to undermine power?
