Abstract | The document was prepared as part of a UNESCO contract to train 16 counterpart officials of UNESCO-sponsored literacy projects. Functional literacy was studied in three parts, all dealing with the total planning process. First was project planning. Literacy projects must consider national educational plans and be related to relevant economic development plans. They must be selective in certain aspects, yet intensive and integrated with economic knowledge. They should plan for social change using system analysis. Achieving the desired system change requires social engineering taking into consideration the change agent, linkages, the environment, and available resources. The second area deals with programing by objectives using the behavioral approach and scheduling operations and activities through PERT--Program Evaluation and Review Technique. The third area of study concerns the administration of functional literacy. This area is complicated by the lack of managerial skills in underdeveloped countries and the necessary government involvement. Five organizational problems were considered, and sensitivity training and project administration were offered as solutions. Program budgets must harmonize with reality. (AG) |
