Having students present the arguments in a law case gives them a context for developing reading, writing, and critical thinking skills.  The courtroom is breathless as the state’s attorney rises to present her opening statement in the case of Chris Archer v.

“To be truly empowering, new technologies must stand on two pillars,” said UNESCO Director-General Irina Bokova as she opened the International Conference on International Literacy Day at Paris Headquarters, which focuses this year on Literacy in a digital world. “First, they must be inclusive, bridging gaps, not deepening them. Second, they must be underpinned by respect for human rights and dignity. All this gives rise to new questions about the meaning of literacy today.”

Others are new to me and provide some ideas that I can try in the near future. I have heard of both Boom cards and Flipgrid but have not actually investigated them to implement. This will become a small goal for the near future.
