[ProfessionalDevelopment 1877] Re: Big Names in Literacy?Lenore Balliro lenore_balliro at worlded.orgWed Jan 16 11:55:48 EST 2008
Hi, Lenore Balliro here from World Education in Boston. I have enjoyed reading the "Big Names" thread, and I've been having fun looking up some of the people I didn't know. I'd like to add some names as well. Mina Shaughnessy, especially Errors and Expectations Ira Shor, especially Critical Teaching and Everyday Life Brian Street Patricia Carrell Janet Isserlis (my first ESOL mentor) Elsa Auerbach Susan Lytle Pat Rigg John Trimbur Stanley Eagleton Like others on the list, I owe a debt to Shirley Brice Heath, John Ogbu, Jim Gee, Peter Elbow, both Goodmans, and Frank Smith. And to Stanley Fish and Richard Rorty for helping me to deconstruct Cartesean polarities. >>> "Sandman-Hurley, Kelli" <KSandmanHurley at sandiego.gov> 1/7/2008 9:47 PM >>> Adult Literacy or literacy in general? In general, I would suggest Chall and Clay for starters. Although they both focused on children, their substantial work is very relevant to what we do in adult literacy every day. ________________________________ From: professionaldevelopment-bounces at nifl.gov [professionaldevelopment-bounces at nifl.gov] On Behalf Of Greg Peter [gdpeter at gmail.com] Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 4:53 PM To: professionaldevelopment at nifl.gov Subject: [ProfessionalDevelopment 1841] Big Names in Literacy? I am curious who you would consider to be big names in literacy, both historically and currently?
