ELI: An Academic Journal

Enhancing Literacy Instruction (ELI) is a peer-reviewed journal funded by the Center for the Advancement of Reading and Literacy Instruction (CARLI), through the Center of Excellence grant from the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education. This grant was awarded to the Education Departments at Presbyterian College and Lander University.

We aim to publish research conducted by student researchers, including undergraduate and graduate students.

All submissions are peer-reviewed by literacy experts, with the aim of producing high-quality manuscripts that will contribute to enhancing literacy instruction.

We welcome manuscripts that address all aspects of literacy, including traditional forms, such as reading, writing, speaking, and listening, as well as manuscripts on creating, evaluating, and creating information. It is our belief that research on any topic related to literacy has the potential to enhance literacy instruction!

CARLI:

Center for the Advancement of Reading and Literacy Instruction

The College of Education at Lander University has partnered with the Department of Education at Presbyterian College to develop the Center of Excellence for the Advancement of Reading and Literacy Instruction (CARLI) based on the Science of Reading.

CARLI deploys pre-service teachers as targeted, intensive tutors in PK-3 classrooms. It also shares resources from these efforts via a web portal that can be accessed by other Education Preparation Providers (EPPs) in the state of South Carolina.

Enhancing Literacy Instruction (ELI) supports CARLI’s goal of enhancing understanding of effective instructional practices in reading and literacy.
