Let's Not Marginalize Adolescent Literacy (Literacy Issues in Focus).
Vacca, Richard T.
Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, v41 n8 p604-09 May 1998
Argues that adolescent literacy has been pushed to the edges of public debate and policy at a time when the literacy development of early adolescents and teenagers is more critical than ever. Discusses why adolescent literacy is critical, how and why the author became an adolescent-literacy educator, and prospects for the future of adolescent literacy. (SR)
