Literacy and Reading is important not just for information, but for enjoyment, dreams and possibilities. Reading connects us with empathy and introduces diversity. Using artifacts to demonstrate promotion, programs and evaluating literary works, I included slides and info graphics, as well as an evaluation tool for collaborative assessment of resources that can promote literacy and reading.
