ABSTRACT
Teaching and learning in an age of information can be at its most liberating when literacy, technology, and pedagogy are aligned toward a common purpose: a democratic education that improves the life chances of all children. These include: (a) critical literacy that teaches about information, as well as with information; (b) experiential education that employs communication tools for student use in experimental and investigatory ways; and (c) critical pedagogy that supports constructivist, inquiry-based, and democratic practices.
