Dave Warlick says we need to "instill a learning lifestyle." But what does that hene mean? I follow the link he provides, to here, where he says "One of the big pushes in Canada seems to be 'student engagement.'" But that's hardly a form of literacy - is it? He says, "We need to more fully describe the expanding qualities of literacy that reflects today’s networked, digital and info-abundant environment, and then make sure that learners are utilizing all of these skills as part of their learning practices." I keep feeling I need to revisit the subject of literacy, well beyond what I've posted here.
