presentation introducing the new Converging Literacies Center (CLiC) at A&M-Commerce

1. CLiC "Convergence occurs . . . through . . . social interactions. . . . Each of us constructs our own personal mythology from bits and fragments of information extracted from the media flow and transformed into resources through which we make sense of our everyday lives." (Henry Jenkins, Convergence Culture , 2006)
