Stories Of School : Perspectives Of The Low Literate Adult, Anne Shipway
Stories Of School : Perspectives Of The Low Literate Adult, Anne Shipway
Theses : Honours
This thesis explores the school experiences of low literate adults through their perspective recognising that the 'voice' of the low literate adult is absent from the arena of adult literacy research. Stories are co-constructed by the participant and the researcher with particular emphasis on mai1uaining the voice of the research participant. Through this thesis I argue that the inclusion of the low literate adults perspective is an essential element in gaining a deeper understanding of themes and issues which impact on literacy attainment.
