Literacy in the English Classroom and Beyond
English Think Tank - 2005 Conference
June 23-25, 2005
National Technical Institute for the Deaf in Rochester, NY
Conference goal:
The conference will serve to disseminate information on innovative and best
practices for helping deaf students attain English literacy. It will provide
a forum for practitioners to present papers on instructional practice as well
as research.
Audience:
The audience will include those who work with deaf students at the college
level, as well as those working at the pre-college level in institutes for
the deaf, as itinerant or resource room teachers, or as mainstream teachers
who have deaf students in their classes. Anyone whose work is related to the
development of English literacy in deaf or hard-of-hearing students in middle
school programs up to and through the college level is welcome.
Conference program:
The program will feature a keynote speaker, concurrent presentation sessions
as well as an open discussion session at the end of the conference to formulate
recommendations for future conferences. We hope to have two or three concurrent
sessions during each time period.
The Call for Papers is now available at http://www.rit.edu/~thnktank/.
