Women learners in English as a Second Language and
literacy classes need their lives outside the classroom to be acknowledged and
discussed. The material in this kit describes many everyday issues in women's
lives and provides relevant and stimulating material so that women can improve
their English skills while considering their real problems.
The Women's Kit is a series of eight booklets plus an
introduction. Each booklet is made up of excerpts from materials written by
women about their lives in Latin America, Africa and England.
The kit is intended to be the basis for discussion about
women's experiences - as homemakers, paid workers, and mothers. Our aim is to
encourage women to engage in discussion and critical thinking about their
lives.
The kit is published jointly by the Participatory Research
Group (PRG) and the International Council for Adult Education, Women's Program.
Call or write PRG to order your kit. The price is $25 per kit; $40 for
institutions. Individual booklets may be purchased for $2.50 each. Please add
15% for postage and handling. Participatory Research Group, 229 College
