I am very excited to announce a brand new NIFL electronic discussion list. The name of the list is the Reading and Writing Skills List. The list will begin on Oct. 13, but in the meantime, I encourage you to go to http://www.nifl.gov/mailman/listinfo/readwrite and subscribe. 
 
The list will focus on topics such as motivation and reading/writing, diversity and reading/writing, component skills of reading/writing, reading/writing instruction, reading/writing strategies, reading/writing skills necessary for post secondary and workplace settings, and child/adult differences in reading/writing.
 
I think that many of you who have interests in technology, may find the list interesting, in terms of thinking about technology and reading and writing. I know that your technology voices will be welcome as we explore the various reading and writing topics.
 
Please help spread the word around. The list won't be active until Oct. 13th, so if you have questions before then, please feel free to email me at: dgreenberg at gsu.edu
 
When you subscribe (http://www.nifl.gov/mailman/listinfo/readwrite) please don't forget to answer the confirmation email that you receive (until you do so, you won't be officially subscribed).
 
Thanks,
