Literacy. In order to improve educational results for students with disabilities, participating LEAs within the Shasta County SELPA assure that all students who require special education will participate in the California Reading Initiative, just as all other students. In order to facilitate that effort, each district assures that special education instructional personnel will participate in and have full access to the following: • District and county staff development in literacy and learning research that aligns with state adopted standards and frameworks; and • District and county staff development in research based instructional strategies for teaching reading to a wide range of diverse learners. Our goal is: • To increase the participation of students with disabilities in statewide assessments with and without accommodations or modifications as monitored by the IEP process; and • To increase the percentage of children with disabilities who are literate; and • To assure that students with disabilities attain higher standards in reading. In order to reach these goals, each LEA assures that students with disabilities will have full access to: • All required core curriculum, including state-adopted textbooks and supplementary textbooks; and • District, county or state adopted texts and state adopted instructional materials and any necessary supports to obtain higher standards in reading.
Literacy. Historically, literacy has been narrowly defined as reading and writing, and both skills have been conceptualized as neutral and decontextualized (Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 2010; Xxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 2011). Although literacy is still a contested construct, this paper uses Street’s (1984) ideological model of literacy which stresses the myriad literacies that develop within a particular social, political, and cultural context. 1 To disambiguate this term, authenticity in this study is not the same as the concept of “perceived historical authenticity” used in tourism studies to examine if an historical re-creation seems real to the tourist. Seeming real is not the same as being real. Perceived authenticity does not ask, “Does this writing task approximate the real to you?” but rather, “Is this writing task real to you?” Writing task. “Writing task” broadly refers to the process of, purpose for, and product of writing connected to one school writing assignment. It is interchangeable with “writing assignment,” which also includes the process, purpose, and product of writing. Theoretical Framework This study examines the complex nature of writing classrooms by utilizing cultural- historical activity theory (CHAT) as a framework (Engestrom, 2001). CHAT is a specialized theory within sociocultural theory, which conceives of literacy as social and cultural practice (Street & Lefstein, 2007). To understand complex systems such as classrooms, in addition to the three primary elements (subject, tool, and object) in the mediational triangle articulated by Xxxxxxxx (1978), activity theorists posit that researchers need to understand how contextual elements may affect primary relationships (Xxxxx, 1976). Other factors beyond the topic for writing may influence to what degree a student feels that the task is authentic. What initially is a task with low authenticity may become more authentic if students are able to work in groups or if the teacher facilitates a series of thought-provoking activities on the topic. Third generation activity theorists take the idea one step further and examine how multiple activity systems interact (Xxxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 1993; Xxxxxxxxx, 2001; Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 1995; Xxx, 2006; Prior, 2006; Xxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2003; Xxxx & Xxx, 2007) Xxxxxxxxx and colleagues have referred to this zone of interaction as the “third space” (Xxxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 1995, Xxxxxxxxx et al. 1999). This study draws heavily on the idea of third space by examining how teachers and st...
