29. Literacy and Learning: Acknowledging Aboriginal Holistic Approaches to Learning in Relation to "Best Practices" Literacy Training Programs (2003)

Literacy and Learning: Acknowledging Aboriginal Holistic Approaches to Learning in Relation to "Best Practices" Literacy Training Programs Double-A conformance, W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0

Final Report

Authors: Eileen Antone, Peter Gamlin, Lois Provost-Turchetti

Collection: Research Materials

This research project was developed to engage literacy stakeholders in a research initiative relevant to Aboriginal people. The intent is to facilitate a process that will ensure that Native literacy in Ontario is perceived, acknowledged and recognized “wholistically” as distinct to Aboriginal peoples, in relation to mainstream literacy.

“Wholistic” describes the Aboriginal philosophy in which “everything is related” by virtue of shared origins and in which, by extension, the human being is considered an entire whole; that is, mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally as an individual, with one's family and extended family, one's people, and with the cosmos in sacred relationships. This is distinct from a “holistic” philosophy in which the term ‘related' is taken as meaning ‘all things are interconnected' by virtue of sharing an environment in which action leads to a type of ‘domino effect' in a secular world.

A Review of Literature about Adult Numeracy Instruction

Authors: Kate Nonesuch

Collection: Research Materials

Through an extensive literature review and ongoing discussions with math instructors in BC, Ms. Nonesuch describes best practices in the field of adult numeracy instruction, while also recognizing that implementing best practices, getting instructors to be enthusiastic about teaching math and getting students involved in their learning, are difficulties that have to be overcome.
