A Nova Scotia History Manual
This history manual is part of a project to empower adult learners. The material is enjoyable, educational, and makes learners part of the world. Nova Scotia history is a topic that should be accessible to all Nova Scotians and Canadians, regardless of their reading level. Many of the stories in the book were tested with adult learners in adult upgrading classes. Some of the stories were also contributed by learners. The manual covers many aspects of the region's history, from the Viking explorers, to the Mi'kmaqs, as well as explorers such as John Cabot, Jacques Cartier and Samuel de Champlain. The book also includes a small section on the Antigonish Movement, a very important event in the history of adult education in Canada. There are Comprehension and Trivia Questions after every section. For more information : Shelburne Historical Society, P.O. Box 39, Shelburne, NS B0T 1W0, Tel. (902) 875-3219.

Plain Language Advocacy Guide, A
Authors: Janet Smith
This Guide attempts to answer some of the most frequently-asked questions about welfare, and gives readers helpful hints on how to deal with the welfare system. The Guide also lists organizations and resources that can address other questions and concerns you may have about the welfare system.
Author Janet Smith explains: “Literacy students and instructors have been saying for years that the welfare system is confusing. Most recipients don't fully understand their welfare rights and responsibilities. Instructors find the policies equally confusing. We felt it was time to interpret EIA legislation and policies, making this information accessible to the average reader.” The guide is written in plain, easy-to-read language, at an approximate grade 5/6 level. It is aimed primarily at welfare recipients, but can also be used as a teaching and advocacy tool for those who support people on welfare: literacy instructors, case workers, community organizations, advocates and others.
