[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: SYMPSIUM FOR EUROPEAN READING IN aUSTRIA

[Langer, Judith A]

I’d be happy to chair. If anyone would like to co-chair, let me know. The call for papers is on the Web under 19th European Conference on Literacy 2015. It says “he conference will create a forum for the presentation and direction of finding of current research into the range of contemporary forms (“traditional and new” ….) I’ve never been to this conference before. How literal is “presentation of current research” meant to be?  Will a discussion of needed research in be acceptable?

After this email to all, I’ll limit the discussion to those who would like to participate.

Jane and those intersted in a Hall of fame symposium in Austria

I have been amused that we have lotsof volunteers to present aaaat RHOF symposium in Austria at the Eurpean Reading Conference but no one has volunteered to organize it, I have a suggestion. The topicof the symposium shoould be : Needed Research on literacy. Each person could pprepare a short presntation on the topic from his/her  prospective. I thin Jane shouls choose a chair to submit the propodal to Renata, perhaps Judith Langer would be willing to chair? I will be in St Louis at IRA which most unfortionally conincides.
