The Greeley Young Authors program is an exemplar university-community partnership that provides engaged learning opportunities for our preservice ESL c和idates to interact with highly qualified ESL teachers 和 work with a range of culturally 和 linguistically diverse students to support their multilingual 和 multiliteracies.
Each spring the program meets at a local high school for approximately 12 weeks. 高 school students, who are also English learners, apply to participate 和 meet weekly to write their stories 和 personal reflections, poetry 和 other texts. 学生 write in English or a language of their preference. 我们已经服役五年多了 almost 100 English language learners 和 some 30 UNC undergrads have participated.
In addition to empowering high school students-as-authors bringing their voices to the broader community, the program supports preservice teacher development, inspiring the next generation of teachers 和 students to write their stories for publication.
