Some list recipients were unable to read it. Jenny The EFF Teaching/Learning Cycle, which will be highlighted in the next issue of the HOT Topics, has been added to the EFF Special Collection in the EFF Downloadable Masters section. For a copy, go to EFF Products and Publications at http://www.nifl.gov/lincs/collections/eff/eff_publications.html and click on the link for EFF Downloadable Masters at the top of the page.Andy Nash (from the EFF National Center) and Marilyn Gillespie (from the EFF Assessment Consortium) are writing an EFF Teaching and Learning Toolkit that will be based on the EFF Teaching/Learning Cycle. The purpose of the toolkit will be to provide resources (tools, strategies, examples, and background guidance) that illustrate the EFF teaching/learning cycle. The toolkit will guide practitioners through the implementation of each step of the cycle with a special emphasis on role of assessment in each step. The kit will provide guidance for those who understand EFF's goals and are drawn its approach and vision, but who need support in how to implement that vision in daily teaching practice. We would like the contents of the kit to build upon real practices used in the field by EFF teachers, tutors, facilitators and program administrators. To do this, we need you. Look over the 10 steps of the teaching learning cycle. Do you have: > Examples or stories from practice about how you have taught the entire cycle; > Examples or stories of how you have taught one or two steps in the cycle; > Tools, techniques or strategies for teaching specific steps in the cycle; > Background guidance for how to implement a step or steps in different contexts (e.g. ESL, GED, corrections, family literacy); > Names of published or unpublished books and materials that have given you insights or provided techniques for how to teach using EFF? We'll welcome any good ideas or suggestions you have-even if they are in "rough" or handwritten form. We can adapt them to fit the format of the kit. Although not every suggestion may make it into the kit (we're trying to keep it short), the work of each contributor will be recognized.
