Dear all,

everyone else, please have a look at this invitation from Jenny 
Horsman:

thanks - Janet Isserlis
__________________________________________________________

I want to let you know about a new literacy discussion on-line -
Creating Change: Taking Account of Violence.
Please pass this information on to anyone you think might be interested.

I have written a first draft discussion paper to open more talk in the
literacy community about how literacy programs can take the impact of
violence on learning more fully into account.  I hope this discussion will
be another step towards practical changes in literacy programming that will
support learning for all.

You can find the paper at www.jennyhorsman.com under articles.  Or let me
know if you would prefer me to just email it to you.

I invite you to engage with these ideas, talk about them with your
colleagues, and post your thoughts on line.

Over the next few weeks (from June 4th to June 25th, 2001) you can join the
conversation at www.alphaplus.ca - click on alphacom then alphacom
discussions and look for new the discussion called "Creating Change."  If
you have any difficulties navigating your way through you can call
1-877-772-2345 or 416-322-1012 x103 for technical help.

The paper is a working draft, I will incorporate new insights into a final
version after the on-line discussion.  Join us and help strategize how to
create change in literacy programs!

I hope to see you there,
Jenny
