What/how should we document?
Documentation is inherently selective and interpretive; how do we avoid asserting a voice that drowns out that of the learning child?
How can documentation maximize on being reflective and critical and practical (and ethical!)?
About backyardbooks
This blog is a kind of electronic storage locker for ideas and quotes that inform my research... literary research into fiction for young adults (with a special focus on New Zealand fiction). Kiwis are producing amazing literature for younger readers, but it isn't getting the academic appreciation it deserves. I hope readers of this blog can make use of the material I gather and share by way of promoting our fiction. Cheers!
