Summer Literacy Seminar

Thursday June 7, 2012

With Ellin Oliver Keene

The Seminar will be based on Ellin’s new Heinemann publication, Talk About Understanding: Rethinking Classroom Talk to Enhance Comprehension (Heinemann, 2011).  In this seminar, we’ll explore ways in which we can make relatively minor modifications in our oral language patterns that will lead to significant changes in the sophistication of students’ discourse. We’ll investigate ways in which we can we encourage student talk that reflects their understanding of texts and concepts more accurately.
