Featured Blogs

As part of LING 1900, students write three Ìýblog entries over the course of the semester. These blogs give students the opportunity to reflect on the rich experiences they're having with our community partners. Whether they be working one-on-one with a young reader through the Boulder Library Reading Buddies Program, or supporting a classroom teacher at ³Ô¹ÏÍø Hill Elementary School, the unique and special interactions they have with members of our community get a spotlight in these blogs.Ìý

At the end of the semester, the Literacy Practicum liaisons and faculty director select the top three blog entries. It's never easy to choose because every reflection is beautiful in its own way. We invite you to enjoy some of the memories captured over the years in the reflective posts below!
