In review of Dr. Moye's Article and podcast, Foregrounding the Disciplines in Secondary Literacy Teaching and Learning: A Call for Change I am intrigued by new concepts for student education. I believe in academia we have more theory then we have time to for implementation. I believe the concept that Dr. Moye has introduced is just a shift of how to introduce content literacy. I believe her ideals may be the most accurate way of accomplishing Content Literacy through Disciplinary Literacy. I believe she may have created the foundation to accomplish literacy practices multiple genre.
As I traversed the courses in this M.A.T program, the knowledge I have been exposed to and synthesis has been amazing. This article and podcast have gone further to helping me understand how concepts are re-conceptualized and how research becomes a living breathing organism. I am excited to see what types of concepts my own research will lead me to redevelop or conceptualize. The fact that "Content Literacy" can possible evolve into "Disciplinary Literacy" before it has essentially taken root is exciting, encouraging, and daunting at the same time. What this article has helped me gain is the understanding that research and learning can be categorized as the same, "A Life Long Pursuit of Understanding."
