Title: | What Can the Cuban School of Adult Literacy Offer in Aboriginal Australia? A Pilot Study in a Remote Aboriginal Community | Contributor(s): | Boughton, Robert G (author) | Publication Date: | 2013 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/13586 | Abstract: | Mass literacy campaigns, once a common feature of anti-colonial independence movements, are again occurring in many countries of the Global South. In Australia, a group of Aboriginal leaders are investigating the feasibility of mounting such a campaign in their communities, where very low rates of English-language literacy have become a major obstacle to self-determination. This paper reports on an initial pilot study in a remote Aboriginal community, using the Cuban 'Yes I Can' mass adult literacy campaign model. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | CASAE 2013: 32nd National Conference of the Canadian Association for the Study of Adult Education, Victoria, Canada, 3rd - 5th June, 2013 | Source of Publication: | 2013 Meeting of CASAE: Proceedings of the 32nd National Conference of the Canadian Association for the Study of Adult Education (CASAE)/L'Association Canadienne pour l'Étude de I'Éducation des Adultes (ACÉÉA), p. 54-60 | Publisher: | Canadian Association for the Study of Adult Education (CASAE) | Place of Publication: | Victoria, Canada | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130301 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education 130101 Continuing and Community Education |
