To refresh your memory or if you're not familiar with EFF, here's a list of the 4 Purposes [from the 11/97 EFF map]: 1. ACCESS - information so adults can orient themselves in the world. 2. VOICE - to be able to express ideas and opinions with the confidence they will be heard and taken into account. 3. INDEPENDENT ACTION - to be able to solve problems and make decisions on one's own, acting independently, withought having to rely on others. 4. BRIDGE TO THE FUTURE - learn how to learn so adults can keep up with the world as it changes. I see how each of these purposes can relate to using technology in the classroom, and was wondering if anyone has considered EFF specifically when developing a lesson or a curriculum. Feel free to respond to me directly or to the list. Thanks. Kelly Smith kellys@vnet.net Literacy South
