3. I learned these important lessons about literacy teaching and learning from Gordon, the work we did together, my reflections on that work, and the conversations I had about it with colleagues years before the scholars I read in graduate school conducted their research on the relationships that exist among prior knowledge, lived experience, meaning making, and literacy learning (e.g., Bransford, 1979; Bussis, Chittenden, Amarel, and Klausner, 1985; Halliday, 1975; Harste, 1984; Heath, 1983; Kintsch, 1977; Rumelhart and Ortney, 1977). I learned these lessons years before scholarship was published in the United States that addressed - more and less directly - the relationships that exist among language learning and use and participation in discourse communities (e.g., Bakhtin, 1981; Fish, 1980; Foucault, 1972; Radway, 1984; Robinson, 1987; Smith, 1971; Vygotsky, 1978; White, 1983).
