Hello,

I am taking a literacy course at San Jose and just
wanted to throw a few questions into the discussion. 
Those of you that work directly with literacy
students:  I am wondering how your program approaches
using computer technology into your program?  Is it a
focus of your program (part of your goals for your
students) or is technology used more as a tool for
learning basic literacy skills?  Also, do you like to
use skill and drill programs or do you use Internet
and word processing programs to help students change
the way they interact with their world?  

Also, I am curious to know if any of you have been
involved in formal literacy education programs?  Are
there any that you know of?  

Thanks for any responses.
Melissa Caudill
