"The thesis argues that reading and spelling are interdependent and complex processes, and that "good" readers. but "poor" spellers, read in ways which do not assist in their developing spelling repertoires: their reading behaviours contribute to overall text meanings wihout contributing to individual word knowledge. As well, their writing behaviours do not allow for this knowledge to be used, practised, or displayed."
Description:
"The aim of this thesis was to investigate the process by which policy regarding the use of computers in the classroom was developed in a secondary school in a Victorian provincial city. It seeks to determine whether a policy determined at a State Education Department level may be redefined at a local school administrative level and the changes that may occur when that policy is implemented in the classroom"
