Abstract
Georgia State University’s (GSU) Alonzo A. Crim Center for Urban Educational Excellence partnered with the Jim Cherry Learning Resources Center at GSU's Clarkston Library to launch an innovative literacy initiative during the 19th annual GSU Sources Pre‑Conference. Anchored by the theme “Seeing Ourselves in the Algorithmic Future of Education,” the program examined how emerging technologies intersect with creativity, literacy, community problem solving, and storytelling. This article shares the program’s design and impact, illustrating how cross‑institutional partnerships can foster inclusive literacy practices and prepare learners to navigate and shape the algorithmic futures that increasingly define educational landscapes.
