Traditional literacies, in my opinion, heavily emphasize content. They emphasize writing, reading, etc. But it's more than just content for modern literacy. These days, there are many ways to communicate with others, both online and on paper. The majority of individuals prefer using social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram for communication. Thankfully, there are still examples of classical literacy today. The 21st century has not yet been completely embraced by all schools. In college, we learned how to adjust to the new educational paradigm, which includes using various applications and learning how to use them to teach students and stay current with the times.

menurut saya, literasi kontemporer merupakan bentuk evolusi dari literasi tradisional. hal ini dapat dilihat jika literasi tradisional hanya berfokus pada teks yang bersifat satu arah (hanya dari guru ke siswa tanpa adanya interaksi timbal balik). literasi tradisional menyebabkan siswa pasif dan cenderung hanya mendengarkan informasi yang disampaikan oleh guru. media yang dipakai dari literasi tradisional ini menggunakan buku dan materi cetak. Beda halnya dengan literasi kontemporer. pada literasi kontemporer. Ini mencakup kemampuan menavigasi dan memanfaatkan teknologi digital secara efektif. pada literasi ini menggunakan teknologi digital sebagai alat bantu dan lingkungan pembelajaran yang interaktif. Hal ini memberikan dampak kepada siswa untuk Aktif, terlibat dalam kolaborasi, dan menjadi pembuat konten.

For me, traditional literacies place a heavy emphasis on content. They focus on reading and writing, etc. However, for Contemporary literacy, it goes beyond just content. These days, a lot of things can be used to communicate with other people, not just on paper, but online. Most people would like to communicate through the use of social media like Facebook or Instagram. Fortunately, traditional literacy can still be seen today. Some schools have not yet fully adapted to the 21st century. When I was still in college, we were taught to adapt to the modern way of learning, and that includes the use of different apps and how we can utilize these apps to help us teach our students and for us to be updated to the times.

Contemporary literacies pedagogy differs from traditional literacy pedagogy mainly in how it views reading, writing, and communication. Traditional literacy pedagogy focuses on the mastery of print-based reading and writing—learning grammar, spelling, comprehension, and composition through textbooks and teacher-centered instruction. It often emphasizes correctness, linear thinking, and individual work.

In contrast, contemporary literacies pedagogy recognizes that literacy today extends beyond print. It includes digital, visual, media, and multimodal forms of communication. Students now read and create meaning through images, videos, emojis, hyperlinks, and social media platforms. Teaching literacy in this context involves helping learners critically analyze online content, understand how technology shapes meaning, and create multimodal texts themselves.

In short, while traditional pedagogy views literacy as a fixed set of skills, contemporary pedagogy sees it as a dynamic social practice that changes with culture, technology, and context. It’s more collaborative, student-centered, and connected to real-world communication.

Contemporary literacy pedagogy is different because it goes beyond just reading and writing. Today, it includes digital skills, visual and audio communication, and understanding how people share meaning through social media, videos, and other online tools. It teaches students to think critically, switch between formal and informal language, and use different modes to express ideas—skills that match how we actually communicate in real life.

Khan Academy as a contemporary didactic

Khan Academy is an online learning platform with a vast library of videos, exercises, and assessments in subjects like math, science, and humanities. Learners typically watch instructional videos, then practice with related exercises. Features include progress tracking, mastery goals, and content that builds from basic to advanced levels.
While Khan Academy offers self-paced learning, its core model remains teacher-to-student, with video instructors and content designers delivering knowledge. Learners receive information, follow guided examples, and then practice.

This is a clear summary of how Khan Academy works. You might consider adding how it supports foundational literacy too, like reading comprehension through word problems or science texts. It’s a great tool, but adding more interactive or peer-based features could make it even more engaging.

While pedagogies as theory provide a solid foundation for understanding teaching methods, putting them into action is essential for several compelling reasons, bridging theories into practice. Educators must implement and experience firsthand pedagogy theories in classroom settings to determine their effectiveness

• Mary Joy Vitto

Contemporary literacies pedagogy differs from traditional literacy pedagogy primarily by expanding the definition of literacy and incorporating a wider range of skills and technologies. Traditional literacy focused on reading and writing, while contemporary approaches recognize the importance of visual, digital, and multimodal communication, and it's a ways doing something real in the world.
