ABSTRACT

Literacy Literacy is based on the quality and quantity of our stored informa-

tion, yet at times we are reluctant to learn to read new images. Com-

placency leads us to favor the familiar and reject that which is different

or new. Overcoming this fear and thinking for ourselves makes learn-

ing a more joyful and expanding experience. Fresh data adds to our

information storehouse that can be called upon when dealing with

new situations, thereby increasing our range of possibilities and

outcomes.
