The Ralph C. Hartman Literacy and Learning Center
The Hartman Literacy and Learning Center is a facility within the College of Education, which supports undergraduate and graduate literacy related programs. The center library houses a children’s literature collection, which is used by the College of Education students as well as children and families participating in the Marquette University Family Literacy Project, a collaboration between the university and neighborhood elementary schools. Students enrolled in EDUC 4964 Practicum: Teaching Elementary Level Reading participate in the Family Literacy Project by tutoring small groups of children in reading and writing after school. The Hartman Literacy and Learning Center provides faculty and staff to support and conduct research regarding the project.
