Read All About It- Important things to look at online this week by Dr. Sam Bommarito
Each week, I search the internet and find important posts that you shouldn’t miss. The descriptions of these posts will be brief, hence the title Read All About It. Read All About It posts typically appear during the week. Read All About posts will allow you to link to the featured items.

I picked these posts because this week I am using elements from each of them in my upcoming keynote address for the SoMLA conference. Viewed from the lens of the “Reading Wars,” it might appear that there are two distinct sides with little hope of finding common ground. However, viewed through the lens of a Centrist like me, the picture is different. That is because I take a nuanced view of the issues surrounding literacy. Viewed that way, there really is more common ground than most folks imagine.
My keynote address at the conference will talk about how we can take an unencumbered view and talk (not argue) about literacy issues, using common sense to find common ground. Registration for this year’s conference is closed. For those of you who have registered, please do attend the opening session and also the appreciation dinner the evening of the session. There will be lots to see and do at SoMLA this year.
