The Reading and Writing Skills Discussion List

Welcome to the Reading and Writing Skills Discussion List, a service of the National Institute for Literacy, in partnership with the Ohio Literacy Resource Center, Kent State University, under the LINCS Basic Skills Resource Collection grant project. This list is moderated by Daphne Greenberg from the Coalition for the Study of Adult Literacy at Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia.

The purpose of this list is to provide an on-going professional development forum for practitioners, advocates, researchers, learners, policy makers, and all other persons who are interested in discussing matters related to reading and writing in the field of adult literacy. This list promotes the sharing of information, research, expertise, and resources on topics such as motivation and reading/writing, diversity and reading/writing, component skills of reading/writing, reading/writing instruction, reading/writing strategies, reading/writing skills necessary for post secondary and workplace settings, and child/adult differences in reading/writing.
