| Abstract
|
:
|
Presented in this volume are five papers on literacy in the Australian Aboriginal context. They include: "Cultural Considerations in Vernacular Literacy Programmes for Traditionally Oriented Adult Aborigines" (Joy L. Sandefur); "Characteristics of Aboriginal Cognitive Abilities: Implications for Literacy and Research Programmes" (W. H. Langlands); "A Suggested Strategy for an Alyawarra Literacy Programme from a Community Development Viewpoint" (Nancy J. Turtle); "Vernacular Literacy for Warlpiri Adults" (Beverly Swartz); and "Developing a Literature for Kriol" (John R. Sandefur). The first four papers underscore the need to consider psychological, sociolinguistic, and anthropological as well as directly educational factors. The fifth paper focuses on the growing importance of Kriol as an Aboriginal language. All five papers are intended for broad audiences, including lay audiences. (MSE)
