Student Grants
The Center for Literacy Education seeks to support students at Wake Forest University who are engaged in literacy and literacy education teaching, research, creative activities, and service across disciplines. While other relevant forms of projects and programming will be considered, the Center for Literacy Education has identified three primary areas of engagement that will guide its grant funding: (1) culturally and historically responsive literacy pedagogies; (2) civic, information, and digital literacies; and (3) school, community, and family literacy initiatives.
