Blends together research, theory and practical advice and techniques for teaching adult literacy.
Synopsis
This book offers a friendly guidance on how to work with adult learners to develop their literacy skills and practices. It challenges the negative view of adult literacy learners as social 'problems' and offers an alternative view of people with rich resources and skills from other aspects of their lives that they can bring to the learning process.
