Discussion: Analysis of themes across chapter studies

Abstract

This chapter analyzes themes, developed through the cross-case analysis method, across the previous studies in the chapters of this book. Three themes across the studies, reading, writing, and speaking, are found as common strategies in the implementation of critical literacy across all educational levels: Elementary, middle, and high schools, and universities. Another common theme across all studies is conflict during critical literacy implementation. However, the nature of this conflict is different across all studies.
