Selected, edited papers from the conference in September 2007. The
link between research and practice has never been more significant
as global awareness about literacy pushes us to question the
success of programs in schools. National reports on literacy were
challenged during the conference. Grounded evidence was given of
literacy programs that work to make a difference for groups with
diverse needs. The collection of ideas in the conference represents
a broad concept of literacy that includes the ability to
communicate in multimodal, digital texts and values creativity
alongside testing for skills. Classroom based research from the sum
of these perspectives presents significant reason for change to
practice and policy. To make a difference to future generations of
students, we need to take the research out of the classroom and
make it the centre of informed debate. This publication is a step
towards achieving that goal.
