Emancipate yourself from Mental Slavery!

YES!This is my twelfth post--I made it! No doubt I will continue blogging;it was a great tool helping me reflect on the 'learnings' from this course so it is fitting that my post is today, as we celebrate Emancipation Day.

Literacy is key to unlocking persons from mental slavery--Reading and writing skills will never go out of style no matter what technological discoveries await us in the future. They are necessary for economic, social, academic, spiritual and personal advancement.

My main focus for this blog was Reading and Writing as an integrated approach to Literacy Instruction using web 2.0 technologies. Here is another example I wish to share--


1)Voxopop: an awesome tool for language development (both oral and wriiten).
Voxopop talkgroup--Literacy Forward: Start a Conversation


You can click on the Literacy Forward link above and share your final thoughts with me about the course, the 'new literacies' or whatever is on your mind
(you will need a microphone to talk!)
