Literacy+for+Diverse+Learners+Wiki

This is the link to a wiki I created in Jessica Eve-Tuck’s Literacy for Diverse Learners class (EDS 383-02). Here, my group and I determined a declaration of rights for all students. This demonstrates my dedication to human diversity and the appreciation of it. We established five unique rights: “Students have the right to innovation,” “Students have the right to education without discrimination,” “Students have the right to motivation and meaning making,” and “Students have the right to succeed.” We were all responsible for a particular right and I championed “innovation.” I contend that all students deserve cutting-edge teaching philosophy, technology, and materials. Technology is such a small part of innovation, that I mainly focused on topics such as classroom environment, education, and lifestyle. Each part plays a significant role in enabling students to learn in their individual ways. Innovation is the bridge over the gap of multiple intelligences, multiple literacies, and diverse classrooms.  My wiki is a declaration of student’s rights and my philosophy as a teacher. If I can offer my students the best possible, innovative styles of teaching I will- every time. The wiki will serve as a benchmark to always remind me of what I stood for when I began teaching and will give me a base to grow from and develop.
