The Foreign Language Classroom: Approaching a New Literacy?Wiki, The Body, Health and the Subjunctive Chad Everett Allan Course 77325
Why did I select this project? • Gaps in concept of literacy and SL literacy • KSU students…The need to “just pass and get the credit” • All literacies must be taught: health, economic, social, political How are we each accountable for the literacy of each child? (content must connect) • Provide multimodal approaches for all learners • Provide access to tasks that can be completed inside and outside the classroom • Let technology and media provide a connection to education and the outside world • Students need “connections that are real, relevant and skills for now and the future” • Collaborative work, communication, connections, and culture (I, P, I)
Action Plan and Literacy • Students work for 4 weeks (curriculum and project) • Accompanies current curriculum and assessments for KSU • Task over Test! • Role of the facilitator and a community • Literacy (reading and writing)…but also LITERACY (Learning/living intelligently takes effort, and relevant and creative YOGURT) ??? • Pairs, individuals, groups-Civic literacy • Knowing every child, student, adult has a rate and route for reading, writing, speaking…so why not a preference or options that relate to what they do normally? They do not go home and read textbooks. • Share, teach and learn • Promote multiple skills practice
