Coding literacy :how computer programming is changing writing /Annette Vee. - 1 PDF (xi, 361 pages) :illustrations, maps. - Software studies. - Software studies (Cambridge, Mass.).

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Introduction : Computer programming as literacy -- Coding for everyone and the legacy of mass literacy -- Sociomaterialities of programming and writing -- Material infrastructures of programming and writing -- Literacy for everyday life -- Conclusion : Promoting coding literacy : lessons from reading and writing.

Restricted to subscribers or individual electronic text purchasers.

The message from educators, the tech community, and even politicians is clear: everyone should learn to code. To emphasize the universality and importance of computer programming, promoters of coding for everyone often invoke the concept of "literacy," drawing parallels between reading and writing code and reading and writing text. In this book, Annette Vee examines the coding-as-literacy analogy and argues that it can be an apt rhetorical frame. The theoretical tools of literacy help us understand programming beyond a technical level, and in its historical, social, and conceptual contexts. Viewing programming from the perspective of literacy and literacy from the perspective of programming, she argues, shifts our understandings of both. Computer programming becomes part of an array of communication skills important in everyday life, and literacy, augmented by programming, becomes more capacious. Vee examines the ways that programming is linked with literacy in coding literacy campaigns, considering the ideologies that accompany this couplig, and she looks at how both writing and programming encode and distribute information. She explores historical parallels between writing and programming, using the evolution of mass textual literacy to shed light on the trajectory of code from military and government infrastructure to large-scale businesses to personal use. Writing and coding were institutionalized, domesticated, and then established as a basis for literacy.
