Literacy and the Learning Relationship
Dr. Devin Thornburg
This workshop will illuminate the central importance of emotional, motivational, relationship aspects of literacy learning. Through the use of instructional vignettes, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how diverse students become "at risk" in literacy achievement in all content areas, and how teachers strategically set up classrooms, use management strategies, and assessments. The benefits of becoming a learner in one's own classroom will be emphasized, focusing in on guidelines and suggestions for designing literacy instructional programs.

Dr. Thornburg was one of the best professors and mentors I have ever had - if it wasnt for influence from him I would not be where I am today.
