The EFF Center continues to work with programs and states nationally on a variety of projects. You can see what's happening by checking out the calendar of events at: http://www.nifl.gov/cgi-bin/lincs/calendar/calendar.cgi?filter_sc=5 It has now been a year since we launched the new EFF website: http://eff.cls.utk.edu/ There have been many updates made in the past year so I would encourage you to take a look if you haven't visited recently. Here are just a few of those updates: 1) Two publications have been added: http://eff.cls.utk.edu/products_services/online_publications.htm a. The Winter 2005 issue of HOT Topics with a focus on the standard Use Math to Solve Problems and Communicate. b. Research to Practice Note #4: An Approach to Assessment Based on Cognitive Science 2) The EFF Teaching/Learning Toolkit has several new Examples and supporting Tools/Supports: http://eff.cls.utk.edu/toolkit/ The Toolkit will continue to be a growing resource with more examples in different settings (ABE, ESOL, Family Literacy, GED, Corrections) and with different standards. 3) Each of the EFF Standards now has a downloadable pictorial representation available courtesy of Tacoma Community House in Washington. The pictures were originally developed for use with ESOL learners but certainly have other applications. http://eff.cls.utk.edu/fundamentals/16_standards.htm 4) Updated Spanish translations for the Standards: http://eff.cls.utk.edu/fundamentals/spanish/eff_spanish_wheel.htm Aaron Kohring Coordinator, LINCS Literacy & Learning Disabilities Special Collection Research Associate, Center for Literacy Studies, University of Tennessee EFF Center for Training and Technical Assistance Phone:(865) 974-8426 main Fax: (865) 974-3857 e-mail: eff@utk.edu _______________________________________________ NIFL-MODERATORS mailing list NIFL-MODERATORS@literacy.nifl.gov http://literacy.nifl.gov/mailman/listinfo/nifl-moderators
