Ethical Issues in Literacy Research
Literacy educators and researchers at all stages of their careers face ethical issues whenever they embark on research studies. In this book experienced literacy researchers identify and address multi-faceted, multi-dimensional ethical issues related to conducting studies in school, home, community, and virtual settings and share actions taken when faced with ethical dilemmas in their own investigations. Each chapter addresses a specific literacy research ethical issue. Part I focuses on conducting research in settings such as schools or literacy clinics. Part Two addresses research with pre-service teachers in college/university and school settings. Part Three looks at research in virtual w...
Born to Learn
The first smile, the first laugh, the first word... These are the eagerly anticipated and treasured moments in a child's early life. From the moment they're born, children are ready to experiment and learn about communicating -- whether with the cries of a hungry infant, the chuckles of a baby playing peek-a-boo, or the emphatic "No!" of an independent toddler. As parents and caregivers, our love for the young children in our lives points the way for us in responding to their needs and wants. But there are many ways that we can turn those responses into opportunities to nurture our children's developing understanding of language, and to start them on the path of becoming successful and lifel...
Voices from the Middle
The need for continued research at the middle level is clear and urgent. The previous volumes in this Handbook series testify to this urgency. While quantitative studies continue to be essential, there is a critical need to understand the complexities of the middle level community. One way to capture the rich, diverse mosaic of the voices and experiences of middle level participants and stakeholders is to use narrative inquiry methodology. The intent of this volume in The Handbook is to give voice to and broaden our understanding of the wide variety of participants and stakeholders who weave through the middle level. Such participants and stakeholders may include middle level teachers, school psychologists and counselors, students, parents, administrators, middle level researchers, research foundations, and community groups. In addition to hearing directly from these groups, this volume will focus on the intricate webs, connections and questions that these narratives hold and frame them within current middle level research, theory, and practice. Ultimately this volume will highlight the nuance, diversity and future directions that research may need to explore.
A Leg Up
Annotation "Born to Learn" by Carole Rhodes and Lenore Ringler, traced your child's literacy from birth, through initial tentative baby steps, to the toddler and kindergarten years. "A Leg Up", written by the same authors, picks up the story as your child stands at the threshold of formal schooling, a baby and a pre-schooler no longer, face-to-face with the challenges of school -- and no challenges are more daunting than reading and writing. Yet any parent can, by their own example, offer their child significant advantages, by providing the sort of rich literacy environment that can truly support a young reader's journey through emergent literacy to becoming a fully mature and fluent reader ...

Raising Readers and Writers
The first smile, the first laugh, the first word are eagerly anticipated and treasured moments in a child's early life.

The story continues as a child stands at the threshold of formal schooling, face to face with the challenges of school and no challenge is more daunting than learning to read and write. Parents and caregivers are critical to this process as they provide the early language experiences of listening and speaking and children develop their reading ...
