Formative and Summative Assessment Tools for the FLLITE Approach
Wednesday, September 14, 2016 - 14:00 CDT
Joanna Luks (Cornell University)

For those who have begun creating literacy lessons using the FLLITE approach, Joanna Luks will present methods of assessing students' work as they go through the steps of a FLLITE lesson.

The FLLITE project aims to create an educational community of language teachers who will create and share crowdsourced literacy lessons based on culturally authentic texts (words, images, videos, audio) for the L2 classroom. The lessons will refine and extend the pedagogical principles of the crossdisciplinary approach of “the literary in the everyday”. Here, “the literary” refers to the range of playful, metaphorical, and non-conventional ways of making meaning, and "the everyday" refers to language use in contexts outside of canonical literature.

Teachers of all languages are welcome.
