I am a Spanish psycholinguist, Professor Emerita from the University of Barcelona. My research deals with later language development, language acquisition in multilingual contexts, linguistic literacy, early writing development, writing assessment, development of analytic discourse, and text construction abilities from early childhood across adolescence and adulthood.

Members of different universities in Spain with extensive experience in teaching, research, transfer, management and participation on governing teams respond with their reflections, document studies and fieldwork in Culture and Education’s invitation to examine the ‘secrets of the tribe’.

It starts by comparing four different approaches within this perspective: (1) the earliest Vygotskian, (2) the constructivist, (3) the socio-cultural and (4) the "invented spelling" approach. It then advances to describing the methods used to gather toddlers and preschoolers ideas of literacy and presents the main conclusions on children's ideas about the practices of reading and writing, texts and discursive genres, the formal features of written marks and written strings and the representational meaning of writing. Finally, it concludes with two of the contributions of developmental approaches to literacy, which consist in turning literacy into a domain of knowledge that deserves to be studied developmentally and bringing back literacy activities to preschool education.
