The introduction provides an overview of how children learn to talk, read, and write; discusses the rationale for a case study; and explains the procedures used.

The Blue Book on Information Age Inquiry, Instruction and Literacy

They are reproducible and can be used in building year-long study group programmes in schools and li...
