I am Nancy Sledd, and I am a family literacy training specialist with the
National Center for Family Literacy <www.famlit.org>.  Mary Ann had shared
with me the hopes of getting this list going, and I was pleased to see we
will have this new forum in which we can share information and learn from
each other.  In family literacy, we seek to serve those who are most in need
on the academic, social, and economic continua, so this list is great for
me!  Ron, would you be willing to share more with us about the writings of
James Gee and his ideas about the cultural boundaries that affect the
interactions between learners and instructors?  And, Norma, would you share
more with us about Jonathan Kozol's Amazing Grace and Savage Inequalities?
These could be great discussion starters for us.  Thanks.
