- catalog abstract ""In Literacies Lost, M. Cyrene Wells looks closely at the transition students make when they graduate from a process-oriented, learner-centered middle school and move to a traditional high school. This work details the author's two years of research in a middle school and high school and includes observations, interviews with eighth and ninth grades students, teachers, and administrators, as well as examination of students' school work, and school and town documents. Through her experience and her stories, concepts such as community, relationship, and order become tangible and meaningful. The author documents how students underwent a narrowing of school literacy demands, a shift in the nature of relationships with school adults, and a loss of familiar communal supports for learning."--BOOK JACKET.".
