Sylvan,
I'm involved with a project, Computer Technology and Early Literacy - using
Internet resources to link scientifically based reading research with
teaching/parenting resources. It is in process - I can give you a power point
of our presentation and link you to the web site -
http://lift-missouri.org
Go to the CTEL project.
Tim Ponder and I are working on a much larger scale adult and early literacy
Internet based teacher resource for literacy through the LINCS system at NIFL.
Stay tuned.
