Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report (66 pages), from Tracy DeFoe and Diana Twiss, describes the findings from an action research project investigating strategies for developing sustainable, practical workplace literacy programmes. The goal was to find ways to help employers understand that literacy and essential skills should be part of everyday workplace training (instead of one-off or special events). The researchers found that the secret to sustainable programmes is listening to stakeholder needs, understanding the client's business and the environment in which they operate. The researchers summarise the project findings into four lessons: listen and learn, engage people in embedding, embed every which way, and repeat the cycle again. Table of contents: * Lesson one: Listen and learn * Lesson two: Engage people in finding opportunities to embed * Lesson three: Embed every which way (in training materials and methods, in work documents and processes, in communications and display, in normal work life) * Lesson four: Repeat lessons one, two and three * Concluding remarks.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper (40 pages), from Jay Derrick and The Centre for Literacy, examined some of the common models used to think about, debate and plan workplace literacy and Essential Skills (WLES) programmes. Derrick considers that literacy and Essential Skills are interconnected and argues for the adoption of a situated - expansive model where both are central to workplace learning and organisational development. Derrick provides examples of projects and programmes from a variety of contexts and countries, and a summary of the findings of research on successful WLES provision. Table of contents: * Preface: The two solitudes of workplace learning in general and Workplace Literacy and Essential Skills (WLES) * Researcher's Note * Introduction: Defining terms (Embedding. Literacy and Essential Skills. Employability Skills. Workforce Learning) * Embedded Workplace Literacy and Essential Skills: An analytical framework (The Wolf-Evans matrix. Workplace Literacy Education: Decontextualized and contextualized approaches. Expansive and Restrictive workplace environments) * A four-model analytical framework (The Decontextualized Model. The Technical Model. The Situated-Restrictive Model. The Situated-Expansive Model. Towards a Situated-expansive Model: Hypotheses for the future) * Conclusion * Bibliography * Websites referred to in the text * Appendix 1: Questions to consider (developed for the 2011 Summer Institute in Montreal).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of embedded literacy, closely connected to embedded learning on one hand, and training in the workplace on the other, is a central theme for reflection on adult education in Europe and around the world. The Council of Europe indicates knowledge as a pivotal element for the economic and social development of the EU countries and the workplace is an important place for the learning and production of know-how and knowledge. The problem of achieving the competences needed for entering the current labour market concerns a large part of the adult population. And this is where embedded literacy comes in, a topic which the volume tries to deal with from a twofold viewpoint: through theoretical reflection outlining the theme against the development of the European labour market, and reflection on hands-on experiences resulting from a project financed by the European Community called CELiNE, Content Embedded Literacy Education for the New Economy, carried out between 2007-2009.

Download or read book Improving Adult Literacy Instruction written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high level of literacy in both print and digital media is required for negotiating most aspects of 21st-century life, including supporting a family, education, health, civic participation, and competitiveness in the global economy. Yet, more than 90 million U.S. adults lack adequate literacy. Furthermore, only 38 percent of U.S. 12th graders are at or above proficient in reading. Improving Adult Literacy Instruction synthesizes the research on literacy and learning to improve literacy instruction in the United States and to recommend a more systemic approach to research, practice, and policy. The book focuses on individuals ages 16 and older who are not in K-12 education. It identifies factors that affect literacy development in adolescence and adulthood in general, and examines their implications for strengthening literacy instruction for this population. It also discusses technologies for learning that can assist with multiple aspects of teaching, assessment,and accommodations for learning. There is inadequate knowledge about effective instructional practices and a need for better assessment and ongoing monitoring of adult students' proficiencies, weaknesses, instructional environments, and progress, which might guide instructional planning. Improving Adult Literacy Instruction recommends a program of research and innovation to validate, identify the boundaries of, and extend current knowledge to improve instruction for adults and adolescents outside school. The book is a valuable resource for curriculum developers, federal agencies such as the Department of Education, administrators, educators, and funding agencies.
