Highly recommended: Course description: This course is designed to strengthen the language skills learned in the basic language sequence. As indicated in the title of the course, we will focus primarily on grammar and writing, with special attention paid to the aspects of the Spanish language which are most difficult to master. The goal is to help students move toward fluency in Spanish. All students should markedly improve in the four skills areaswriting, reading, speaking, and understandingthat comprise functional fluency in the target language. Native Spanish speakers also will benefit from the intense focus on writing and grammar in the course. This is a required course for the Spanish major, but minors and Education majors traditionally comprise a large portion of its enrollment. This class is conducted in Spanish, and students are expected to speak Spanish at all times. Cultural as well as linguistic literacy will be emphasized.

University of Arizona English 102/108 Information Literacy Instructional Activities Introduction to Library Exploring Topics/Developing Focus Finding Reference Resources Finding Books ... Creating a Bibliography/Citing Sources The following categories of instructional activities are not necessarily linear, although an obvious beginning category is the Introduction to the Library. The Information Literacy activities should be taught throughout the course as they complement the curriculum. For example, in Unit 1, you may want to use activities that are general, help students become familiar with the Library and SABIO, and help them learn more about academic disciplines: Introduction to the Library Finding Reference Resources Finding Books Scholarly vs Popular In Unit 2, the persuasive paper, you would want to use activities that help them develop research and evaluation skills: Exploring Topics/Developing Focus Finding Articles Search Language Using and Evaluating the Web Creating a Bibliography/Citing Sources In Unit 3, you would want to reinforce skills in any of these areas that you see lacking in students. You can have them summarize or reflect on what they have learned about doing research and using information sources on campus (physical library, SABIO, Writing Center, etc.).

90. Fishman- wish for more more detailed analyses of literacy issues in I doubt that all in compositionstudies and educational not the only ones who should read this book http://www.aaanet.org/cae/aeq/br/fishman2.htm

Whose Goals? Whose Aspirations? Learning to Teach Underprepared Writers across the Curriculum. Stephen M. Fishman and Lucille McCarthy. Logan: Utah State University Press, 2002. 238 pp. A NNE B EAUFORT Stonybrook University anne.beaufort@stonybrook.edu Although the title of this book is apt, the book’s scope is so broad that I could imagine two or three additional subtitles: “Negotiating Power Relations and Roles in the Classroom,” or “Applying Dewey vs. Freire in a Multicultural Classroom,” or “Examining the Social Aims of Education.” If you are interested in any of the above, explored honestly, in a systematic and engaging manner, read on. In the first two cases, Fishman did no direct one-to-one intervention: other than giving feedback that the initial work was below a passing grade, Fishman applied the same strategies to these students as to the whole class. He practiced great respect for individual differences, a passion for helping students learn, and enactment of active and democratic (decentralized) classroom activities and homework assignments—all of which involved frequent and varied types of writing. With the third “case,” which occurred after the first two, Fishman took an experimental approach to helping the student: a one-to-one tutorial, following the same principles enacted in the classroom, and adding two key elements: (1) an openness to learning what was causing the student’s reading and writing problems—rather than assuming the causes; and (2) gentle coaching on strategies for reading and writing that could improve literacy.
