Who will sponsor my digital literacy?!
Sponsorship for digital literacies works in the same way print sponsorship does. It’s interesting to think that grandparents are sponsors for print literacies, but grandchildren are sponsors for grandparents in digital literacies. It’s a reversing of roles. I believe digital literacies are very similar to print literacies. In Keri Franklin’s article she pointed out this strategy is probably not new to a lot of people, but may be new to apply it to digital literacy. We can apply print techniques in which we are skilled, to digital ones to gain better understanding. For me, a new digital literacy that I am learning is Google drive. It is difficult because it is so new to me. I need a sponsor for google drive. Any takers?

I totally agree with you in how you pointed out how grandparents are sponsors of print literacies while their grandchildren are sponsors of digital literacies. My own grandparents are in their late 70s and are starting to use iPads, and my younger cousins are helping them with the new technology. My grandparents show my little cousins the newspaper, especially the comics, and read bedtime stories to them. It really is a two way street when it comes to new and old literacies and their sponsors.
