As I prepare to take a Sabbatical from my university teaching job, I’m creating this blog to share with family and friends the adventures of my “travel to write” for the next several months.
My project for my leave from Brigham Young University–Hawaii this semester is to research and write graded readers for students learning English. In my department at BYUH, we are creating online English language courses and learning materials. To support these online learners, we need materials written in easy English that give the students opportunities to practice reading in English at their language level. In our field we call this extensive reading.
For a first day of blogging I want to say that I’m leaving a truly beautiful place here in Hawaii for adventures in other lands. Just to emphasize the beauty, I’ll find a few photos to share (and learn how to post them at the same time.) Laie, HI is a wonderful place to live and work.
