Abstract | This user's guide for professionals using Project Lifelong Learning staff development modules is designed to accompany the documentary on lifelong learning in the workplace, one of three half-hour television documentary programs intended for broadcast and for general public discussion activities. It introduces the project, the purpose of which is to inform people about successful ways to work toward reaching National Education Goal 5: adult literacy. Information follows on use of the package elements: public service announcements (PSAs); documentary, overview of staff development, and indepth staff development videos; readings; suggested discussion questions; ideas for implementing the strategies; bibliography; and resources. In the "Readings" section, an overview of the workplace context describing the goal of work force education programs is provided, followed by descriptions of programs in the video and their selection; and readings on the strategies defining what each means and why each is important. The five strategies are as follows: meet learner's needs, develop support for lifelong learning, accommodate learner differences, develop higher order skills, and enable learners to use all language processes in their lives. The 11 discussion questions are followed by ideas for implementing strategies. A bibliography lists 251 readings on literacy and lifelong learning in general and on the strategies. A subset of the readings is annotated. The resources section lists 25 organizations and 8 clearinghouses. Abstracts describe their goals, activities, and services. A newsletter/directory on the history and background of PSAs produced for literacy awareness completes the package. (YLB) |
