Powerful Literacy happens when teachers become facilitators of student learning by engaging students in relevant topics (student choice), allowing for student-centered inquiry of a related subject, and providing resources to allow students to create new knowledge and recognize the impact of their reading, writing, and problem solving by creating knowledge, enhancing the world around them, teaching others, and building products that positively impact the community.
