The challenge of new technologies. 520 The book is interdisciplinary in focus and centers on enlarging teachers understanding of how reading and writing can change lives and how the language arts can contribute significantly to and change educational processes in the twenty-first century. Implicit in its argument is that although the emphasis on science and math is crucial to education in the digital edge, it remains vitally important to keep reading and writing, language and story, at the heart of the educational process. This is particularly true in a democratic society because shaping stories through human language can enhance the quality of our lives, and teach us something important about what it means to be human and vulnerable. In this sense, stories allow for self-reflection and an increased opportunity to enhance and understand emotional intelligence and human community. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Literacy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85077482 650 0 Language arts.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85074546 650 0 Language arts|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85074546|xPhilosophy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005065 650 0 Language arts|xCorrelation with content subjects.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85074547 650 0 Education|xAims and objectives.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85040992 650 7 Literacy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/999859 650 7 Language arts.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/992284 650 7 Philosophy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1060777 650 7 Language arts|xCorrelation with content subjects.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/992291 650 7 Education|xAims and objectives.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/902507 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Hall, Maureen P.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2013043128 776 08 |iPrint version:|aWaxler, Robert P., 1944-|tTransforming Literacy.|dBingley, U.K. : Emerald, 2011|z9780857246271 |w(OCoLC)694827499 830 0 Innovation and leadership in English language teaching ; |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2010115517|vv. 3. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=368887|zOnline eBook.
