If you will send me your address, I will send you a packet of information from the ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading, English, and Communication and the Family Literacy Center. In addition, you may want to take advantage of the AskERIC service. Send an e-mail message to askeric@ericir.syr.edu with your question(s). AskERIC will then route your question to the clearinghouse best equipped to deal with it. I suggest you also take a look, as suggested, at multiple intelligences, and different ways of learning. You can get information about that, too, from AskERIC. Good luck on your investigation.
