AY 2007-2008 Projects - AfricaCountry Namibia Note: This project starts in February 2008 Project Description An EL Fellow with either writing center or tutoring experience would be extremely valuable in helping the Center for Teaching and Learning (CTL) to launch the Reading and Writing Center. This type of academic support service is relatively new to Namibia; and although the Reading and Writing Center has been thoroughly researched, the Polytechnic lacks staff who have first-hand experience working in one. An EL Fellow will provide essential guidance for the CTL on setting up and running the center, training staff members and collaborating with content-area lecturers. The opening of the Reading and Writing Center will correspond with the arrival of the EL Fellow (it is scheduled to offer full-fledged services starting in August 2007), and the EL Fellow will have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the success of this fledgling project. Through the CTL, the EL Fellow will also be well placed to assist with outreach programs to secondary schools.[Click here to view full description]
