At this busy time of year for educators, many of us find our inboxes full of interesting stuff we just don't get around to exploring further. May I encourage you to take the time to read Steve Quann's wonderful log of a recent project he did with his ESL class. It's quite inspiring and full of great ideas, but the best part is hearing him describe the behind-the-scenes steps he went through to design and carry it out. THIS is the reason I subscribe to NIFL lists--to connect to and learn from exemplary educators in the field. Check it out. Linda Rytterager -----Original Message----- From: nifl-4eff@nifl.gov [mailto:nifl-4eff@nifl.gov] On Behalf Of maryjo.maralit@ed.gov Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 2:04 PM To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: [NIFL-4EFF:2712] Health & Literacy Weblog - Update and Request >From Sabrina Kurtz-Rossi: Health & Literacy Weblog I want to let you know about a new feature we are piloting for the Health & Literacy Special Collection Website www.worlded.org/us/health/lincs and invite you to participate. We want to establish a Health & Literacy Weblog. The idea is to create an active space where teachers and health educators can share their health and literacy ideas and experiences. Unlike a listserve or bulletin board, Weblogs usually take the form of a running journal. Over time we hope to invite many different teachers (and provide them with stipends) to reflect via the "blog." Steve Quann has volunteered to lead the pilot for us. He will go through the process of developing a health lesson, implementing it in his ESL classroom, and with the input of others (and this is were you come in), reflecting on the experience. To help us with the pilot, we are looking for folks interested in health and literacy, and the Internet to log on and comment! The more people, and the more comments the better! If you're interested to seeing a Health & Literacy Weblog in action, and offering your comments and suggestions, go to the http://www.worlded.org/us/health/lincs and click on Health & Literacy Weblog. I hope you'll check it out! - Sabrina ------------------------------------------------- Sabrina Kurtz-Rossi World Education 44 Farnsworth Street Boston, MA 02210 617-482-9485 skurtz@worlded.org
