Oh, yeah, it's on March 7. Seriously, if you're in range, y'all come. In the morning I'm going to talk with the Writing Centre folks about, well, um, fostering dialogic literacy on line (and otherwise), and in the afternoon Anne's going to talk with folks from language arts about a three-year longitudinal study of beginning writers which has developed over the last decade into a _twelve_ year longitudinal study, as the first- through third-grade kids they worked with get ready to graduate from high school. -- Russ __|~_ Russell A.
