Proposal Title
Creating Inclusive Spaces: Reading, Writing, Thinking, Talking with Digital Tools
Abstract
We will share findings from research conducted with 17 teachers in PreK–10th grade classrooms. We will present a rationale for use of digital tools to create opportunities for socially interactive learning in the inclusive classroom. Additionally, we will discuss the theoretical underpinnings of this research and implications for the field. Our findings are embedded in the real stories of teachers who demonstrate the understanding of the socially situated nature of engaged learning. Implications for teaching are discussed.
