Women and Literacy Part I: Making Connections

CCLOW's latest literacy publication, Making Connections: Literacy and EAL Curriculum from a Feminist Perspective, was launched in September 1996, and reprinted in August 1997. In a follow-up project, supported by the National Literacy Secretariat and Status of Women Canada, workshop facilitators from across Canada came together to plan the delivery of workshops for literacy practitioners. This series of workshops enabled participants to develop ideas and strategies for using the Making Connections curriculum in their literacy and adult education programs. Three supplemental documents emerged from the workshop process.

The first document provides details of facilitators' reflections on the workshops they delivered. The second supplemental document outlines how users of the curriculum materials might incorporate a culture-based and/or anti-racism approach into the curriculum or into the delivery of future workshops. The third supplemental document compiles "Guided Reflections" from the facilitators themselves, who reflected on their own personal experiences as well as the evaluative responses from participants in their workshops, who had been asked to evaluate both the process and the content of each workshop.

These documents will be available on CCLOW's web site:
