Engaging boys with literacy

August 10, 2009

Recently I completed an assessment task for my Masters of Education with a colleague of mine that focussed on how you could use technology to engage reluctant boys in the reading process. I’m really happy with how it turned out, and have published the task as a wiki in my wikispaces account (the wiki was the required format for the task).

I’d be interested to hear from others, and have others contribute to the wiki so that it continues to grow and reflect activities that parents (particularly fathers) can use to help give their sons a bit of a kick along. Until the wiki is marked I’m going to keep it protected (so at this stage you won’t be able to edit any of the content), but as soon as it’s been graded I’ll be relaxing the security a bit, and would love to have as many teachers as possible contributing.
