Yancey

The article “Made not Only in Words” talks about how literacy has evolved due to technology. Yancy argues that the change in literacy has made teaching English change as well. The article talks about how people aren’t reading print material or writing on paper but rather go online and write on social media outlets. The author goes on to say traditional methods to teach are starting to become dated because of this change in genre. One thing that really caught my attention was the mention of repurposing a word processing program to compose emails and that is kinda what I am doing now writing this blog post. Although the article made some good point I feel that it is already dated because it is 12 years old and social media has changed significantly ever since.
