Abstract	This Spanish-language version of a literacy handbook provides an introduction to literacy work for Peace Corps volunteers and other development workers in situations where the literacy work is a primary project or secondary activity. It presents information on planning and preparing for literacy work, offers guidance on program and material development, and suggests strategies for evaluating and improving programs. Chapter 1 looks at the history and value of literacy, levels of literacy, the difficulty of literacy, numeracy, and adult, nonformal, and literacy education. Chapter 2 discusses literacy work strategies--the Laubach method, the Freire method, and functional literacy, as well as literacy for women and children. Chapters 3 to 7 present a model for implementing a project. These steps are described: the feasibility study, planning and preparation, curriculum design, implementation and evaluation of instruction, and development or adaptation of instructional materials. Examples and samples are provided. Chapter 8 discusses activities and methods to create an environment supportive of literacy. Chapter 9 provides advice on where and how to look for resources. An annotated bibliography dealing with literacy methods and materials is included. In chapter 10, four case studies of literacy work done by Peace Corps volunteers illustrate common problems literacy workers face in implementing projects. (YLB)
