Hello,

Thank you to Nell Eckersley, moderator of the Technology and Literacy List, for leading us in a discussion of Virtual Literacy. A special thanks to Steven Pritchard, Glenn Young, Anne Murr and Drake University, for making the Virtual Literacy to Succeed (http://www.educ.drake.edu/webfiles/ivls.mov) video for our discussion, and to all for your insights and expertise. I appreciate everyone's contributions.

I've compiled all posts in the ALE Wiki: http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/VirtualLiteracyDiscussion (Yes, I am caught up!). I will let you know when a final version is up on the NIFL web site.

We will use this discussion compilation and a summary as a springboard for Part III of the discussion series on Building Adult Education Technology Capacity. I have some interesting discussion activities lining up for us, so please keep your eye on the PD List for further details.

In the meantime, feel free to continue discussions of Virtual Literacy here on this list. Two other of the Institute's Lists will also be of interest to you as they intersect with Virtual Literacy issues; here are the links should you wish to subscribe:

Best...Jackie

We must not forget Ms Linda Kelly for her help on the video that was made at Drake University. Des Moines Iowa Ms Linda Kelly has been a driving force for all of us at the Drake University adult Literacy Center.
