[edit] Education

A former high school English and reading teacher, Schlick Noe received her Ph.D. in Reading/Language Arts from the University of Washington.

[edit] Research

She is noted for her research on Literature Circles. Literature Circles are student-led book talks, formed around reading groups based on student choice and a variety of novels, as opposed to one core, classroom text or book; this approach to reading and learning emphasizes Collaborative learning and Scaffolding Theory.[1] Reader-Response Criticism, Independent Reading, and Student-centred learning also comprise most of the theoretical underpinning of Literature Circles.[2]

[edit] Teaching

Schlick Noe works with beginning teachers in the Master in Teaching Program and directs the master's degree program in Literacy for Special Needs, preparing reading specialists.[3].

[edit] Publications

Her publications exploring Literature Circles include:

  • Literature Circles and Response (Hill, Johnson, & Schlick Noe, 1995),
  • Getting Started with Literature Circles (Schlick Noe & Johnson, 1999),
  • Literature Circles Resource Guide (Hill, Schlick Noe, & Johnson, 2001) and
  • Literature Circles in Middle School: One Teacher's Journey (Hill, Schlick Noe, & King, 2003).
