(Hi all) I have been lurking on NIFL-ESL a couple of months and have found the list very useful. I am new new to this list, so let me introduce myself briefly. I teach English as a foreign language at an Institute of Technology, and I am also involved, as a sideline, in PD programmes for introducing the new/open/flexible learning environments. A while ago I completed a postgrad research project ( see URL: http://www.beam.cop.fi/ejohnson/iveta97.htm ) where I looked into the ways in which engineering students process an L2 text in a functional (reading-to-do) setting. I think we all know that an efficent use of the new learning environments requires a lot of literacy skills. I am now interested in learning about the role of literacy skills in this domain, and am thinking of another research project. I was wondering if anyone on this list knows about articles (resources) that take a look at the new learning environments from the perspective of literacy skills. I would be grateful if you could reply off the list. I will post a summary. Esko.
