Annotation
Sums up Hemingway’s status as a popular culture icon before discussing his research on teaching Hemingway’s short stories, particularly “The Old Man at the Bridge” and “The End of Something” to ELL students struggling to meet academic literacy standards. Concludes that Hemingway’s deceptively simple journalistic style engages students, thus fostering greater comprehension during independent reading.
