Innovative Approaches to Literacy in Rural Contexts highlights and explicates innovative approaches to literacy that are currently underway in rural Wyoming public schools and provides applications of those approaches to other rural schools and districts. Each chapter addresses the unique rural contexts in which literacy work is being accomplished and describes how the rurality of that context impacts the nature of the project. With insights from teachers, literacy coaches, school principals, curriculum coordinators, and professors, this text explores context-specific case studies of modern literacy innovations in rural settings, their outcomes, the challenges posed by rurality, and the lessons gained from these experiences. The volume then demonstrates how these innovations can be applied to other rural settings and contexts. It combines research-based, theoretical perspectives with practical guidance, all aimed at fostering continuous improvement in literacy within rural public schools. Addressing multiple levels, from individual classrooms to statewide organizations, Innovative Approaches to Literacy in Rural Contexts will be essential reading for literacy and rural education graduate courses.
