\n
\n The Literacy Studies Group (LSG) invites you to join an hour semina
r Zoom to discuss topics of interest in literacy research from diverse di
sciplines. Each session consists of a 45-minute presentation followed by
questions and answers.

\n Structured Literacy is a term t
hat describes a comprehensive and evidence-based approach for literacy in
struction that is based upon language skills. It includes foundational sk
ills of reading and writing in addition to the development of oral langua
ge and comprehension in an explicit and systematic manner. Evidence-based
practices that are necessary for the successful development of literacy
among students who are learning English as an additional language will be
described. A demonstration of effective literacy instruction that builds
upon first language and literacy knowledge for the development of second
language literacy will be modeled and practiced. Participants will learn
how to address cross-linguistic features into every lesson and thus impl
ement an asset-based approach to instruction.\n

The maritime c ultural landscape is a multi-disciplinary theoretical framework that allo ws for a range of evidence to be compiled in order to interpret locations of interest. Shipwrecks is one of five components typically utilized in constructing and understanding a maritime cultural landscape. Historic ne wspapers and archival sources offer indications of when and where ships w recked around the former Danish West Indian Island. Historic records and local geology were analyzed in the hopes of confirming the location\, ide ntity\, and condition of potential historic shipwreck sites. This paper w ill present historic research into shipping and shipwrecks as well as the results of field surveys conducted in 2023 which focused on identifying historic shipwreck sites around St. Croix.

X-LIVEWHALE-SUMMARY:\n In 1961 John Steinbeck referred to Texas as "a state of mind" concerned with myths\, ghosts\, and glittering self-imaginings that had more to do with desire than fact. He was not far off the mark. From the beginning of Tex as as a place\, insiders and outsiders have argued over what it is\, how it came to be\, and why. Blanton's talk examines how a few key\, public m oments of Texas history—debates over the republic and state's birth in the 1830s and 1840s\, the tardy recognition of the Alamo's importance in the 1900s and 1910s\, the obscure publication of an old Mexican diary in the 1980s and 1990s— and how they demonstrate that a broader\, more pub lic understanding of Texas history has nearly always been about the prese nt as much as the past. This is important to remember today as allegation s of "wokeness" in Texas history have become a force in state politics.\n
