Engaging Boys: Powerful Possibilities for All Learners - webcast

What about boys' literacy?

"Our interest in boy's literacy stems from the fact that we deeply value the success of all students. Therefore, when test results show a particular group is not doing well, we must redouble our efforts to succeed. When numeracy and literacy skills are challenged this can have a profound effect on performance in other subjects. It is an issue of equity.... In this webcast you will see classroom environments, teaching strategies and authentic learning opportunities that genuinely engage and support students in their quest for improved achievement."
