Literacy, the ability to read and write proficiently, is essential in almost every facet of modern life. Alarmingly, a staggering number of U.S. children are functioning below acceptable literacy levels. What can be done to remedy this situation? Teachers need the knowledge and skills to reach all children. This book covers the essentials of literacy learning and teaching in the early grades. The material is presented in a straight forward way and is intended for pre-service educators and new educators working in inclusive settings. In this book, literacy development is examined from multiple perspectives and includes information regarding language development, characteristics of students with special needs, phonological awareness, the alphabetic principle, word recognition, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, written expression, assessment and instructional strategies.

This book explores ways in which inclusive entrepreneurship enhances bottom-up entrepreneurial activity for economic and societal transformation, particularly in remote areas. It focuses on the role of stakeholders in shaping a successful entrepreneurial ecosystem (doxa) and how entrepreneurial ecosystems in larger cities and urban regions differ from those in rural regions, which often have weaker economic infrastructures. It examines the relationship between the internal and external entrepreneurial ecosystems in higher education for fostering entrepreneurial mindsets. Topics such as women and diversity in entrepreneurship; social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial education are explored. This integration of inclusive and emancipatory aspects in entrepreneurship research and practice is of benefit to researchers, scholars, academics, practitioners, and policy makers interested in and have a passion for (re)building entrepreneurial ecosystems.
