Abstract | Education is a national concern in Zimbabwe because prior to independence in 1980, Africans were formally and informally prevented from sharing in the educational opportunities that were available to Whites. Zimbabwe is a young country that has made great strides since independence. They have touched large numbers of people with beginning education programs. However, several problems remain: (1) teacher shortages; (2) large class size; (3) limited books and materials; and (4) need for evaluation of the literacy program. Zimbabwe's participation in an international literacy study will provide information and suggestions for identifying strengths and weaknesses of the national education program. To date there has not been a study to see whether the newly literate people sustain their reading skill by continuous reading or for that matter what they are reading. An evaluation is necessary to see if there is a relationship between the new literacy and productivity. (RS) |
