Learning through Literacy
How do students use literacy to learn disciplinary knowledge in schools? How do students use literacy to learn in out-of-school contexts?
- E-club Project: Professor Ann Neely and two graduate students are working with Nashville inner-city youth at the Martha O'Bryan Center to develop students' technology skills that will enable them to have electronic discussions about children's literature. The youth are developing digital representations of their reactions to literature they read and having electronic book discussions with teacher education students at Peabody. We are hoping the youth will develop skills in technology to extend in meaningful ways outside of school walls. This project is funded by the BellSouth Foundation.
