[Field Notes logo] Seeds for Change: A Curriculum Guide for Worker-Centered Literacy
by Fran Fortino
Field Notes main page Winter 2002 issue
 

This valuable resource is now available from the Workplace Literacy Project of the Canadian Labor Congress. The publication offers a great "how to" guide based on years of experience with union literacy programs and has been well received. Written by adult educator and literacy pioneer Jean Connon-Unda, the guide is the latest publication in the Learning in Solidarity series of the Workplace Literacy Project. Bringing a union approach to the content and process of worker-centered learning, Seeds for Change uses practical examples to demonstrate how to integrate literacy into a problem-posing curriculum and encourage critical reflection and action in and beyond the workplace.

Seeds for Change is for sale at $14 per copy or $12 each for orders of five or more. Contact Tamara Levine, Coordinator, CLC Workplace Literacy Project at 613-521-3400 or by e-mail at: tlevine@clc-ctc.ca
