Small Business Tips Tech Tools Students set to hit the latest e-books Notebook computers to contain textbooks, literature and art By Caroline Humer Updated: 5:47 p.m. ET April 27, 2004 NEW YORK - In Forney, Texas, a fast-growing suburb of Dallas, 10- and 11-year-old students are set to cross a technology divide to an area many adults won't venture into electronic books. advertisement document.write(' Starting in August, more than 100 students in the fifth and sixth grades of the Forney Independent School District will receive notebook computers that contain as many textbooks as the school can muster the rights for, as well as thousands of classic works of art and literature. Instead of opening books, the children will log onto school-supplied laptops to access their math and science textbooks or read American literary classics such as Mark Twain's "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" or Stephen Crane's "The Red Badge of Courage" about the Civil War. "Our generation didn't learn to read on a computer screen, so most parents have an issue with that," said Mike Smith, Superintendent of the Forney school district. But today's fifth and sixth graders don't see it the same way.

Assessment Strategies Using Reading Portfolios There are many good reasons, such as the following, for using reading portfolios: They are an effective assessment tool. They provide teachers with a wide variety of student work over a period of time. They not only provide records of student growth, but also opportunities for students to monitor and be involved in their own reading development. They help students collect, select, inspect, and reflect on their own reading, thus giving them self-assessment skills. A reading portfolio is a showcase of a reader's growth, experiences, and achievement. It consists of: Self-selected, representative samples of the student's work drawn from real reading and responses to reading Written justifications for those selections Formal presentation of the justified selections to peers, teachers, and parents

No. 12 Table of Contents July 1996 An Information Network for Students of Literature Hugh Robertson University of Huddersfield How will we best use digital resources in the teaching of literature? Or indeed, can we use them effectively? This paper is based on my experiences over a number of years of working with hypertext learning materials, and working with English students on modules involving the use of computer software or data. I am neither totally discouraged nor persuaded that I have found entirely satisfactory ways of integrating computer-based work into the curriculum. So I am writing as much about what I would like to try in future as about what I know from current experience works. There are a number of issues which need to be addressed which significantly affect the kind of digital resources we will want to use and how we present them. What kind of teaching or learning resources will they be? Will they be used to complement or replace lectures or seminars or tutorials? How will they be related to or integrated into the syllabus? How much access to them will students have in theory, and how much will students use the resources in practice? Perhaps most importantly, how can these resources be used to discourage students from regarding them as an easy route to pre-digested material, and to encourage active learning and participation? Information Technology in English Studies Nowadays more students use word processors confidently, many use email and browse the World Wide Web. Most of our students now present major assignments in printed form. In a few modules students are required to submit some or all of the material to be assessed on a floppy disk. Among Arts students, however, there continue to be many students who are nervous of computers or feel insecure in using them for any but the most familiar functions, and there are certainly some who are suspicious of or hostile to the computer as a tool alien to their conception of the arts, and who are resistant to its introduction into their studies. We offer options on Computer-Aided Text Analysis and on Writing for Hypertext, but only a minority of students choose to do them. For many of those who do, an increased general confidence in using computers is one of the most important benefits they acknowledge as a result of following the module.

Department of African Languages and Literature University of Wisconsin - Madison 1414 Van Hise Hall 1220 Linden Drive Madison WI 53706 fax: 608 265-4151 Department Email Deadline for applications to the Summer Arabic Immersion Program is Wednesday, June 2, 2004. No other applications will be accepted after this date. Mission Statement The mission of the Department of African Languages and Literature is to provide research and teaching in the areas of African languages, linguistics, literature, and oral traditions. This includes work on both graduate and undergraduate levels, and emphasizes the development and application of analytical and methodological tools that will enable students to work effectively and imaginatively in the four areas. The four areas are not considered mutually exclusive: the interconnections of these disciplines are studied closely and creatively. It is in the linkages among the disciplines that the Department makes its most significant and original contributions to knowledge. The Department's mission is also to produce graduate students who are capable of conducting original research and of providing teaching of quality in African languages, linguistics, oral traditions, and literature; students who will assure the future strength and health of these fields, who will carry our work to other institutions and countries. Through our teaching and our publications, we regularly inform and define, develop and give richness to our several disciplines, and so have a shaping influence on the field generally.

About Making Meaning in Literature: A Workshop for Teachers, Grades 6-8 Individual Workshop Descriptions Introducing our Literary Community Encouraging Discussion ... Introduction Key Points Learning Objectives Background Reading Homework Assignment Classroom Connection ... Additional Reading Key Points In the envisionment-building classroom, assessment is an on-going process that: focuses on how students are thinking and how they are growing as thinkers; focuses on ways students develop interpretations of texts; focuses on the expression of multiple perspectives about texts; and focuses on ways of going beyond the text to ways the text connects with other texts and with students' lives. Students in envisionment classrooms participate in self-reflection and self-assessment. Assessment helps teachers and students gauge how and what students are learning and thinking. Assessment can help teachers shape timely instructional strategies targeted to immediate student needs.

They include videotapes and video disks, audiotapes, computers, computer software, GPS systems and so forth. Evidence of effectiveness We examined research on the use of a variety of technology tools in classrooms, including computers, televisions/VCRs, and Internet access. We located 27 studies altogether, the majority of which evaluated the use of computers exclusively in the school setting. These computers were used for tasks as varied as CAI and virtual reality. While results were mixed, no study found that use of any technology had a negative impact on student learning. In several cases, the use of particular technology tools was associated with positive gains in learning for students with learning disabilities, students with emotional or behavioral difficulties, and students described as low achievers or "at-risk." None of the studies we examined looked at effects of technology tools on advanced students or high achievers.
