The curriculum can be adapted for various ESOL levels or Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes. The curriculum uses learner-centered activities that engage students in discussion, elicit and build on their experiences as workers and encourage critical analysis and strategies. To view and download this curriculum, go to www.umass.edu/roundtable. The curriculum is based in part on the Workers Rights Pilot Curriculum by the University of Massachusetts Labor Extension Program. The Workers Rights Pilot Curriculum is designed for trainers and other staff of unions and community-based organizations who need to inform workers of their basic rights under Massachusetts Law. The Roundtable has designed lessons that make the Pilot Curriculum's information more accessible to ESOL students. Please forward this announcement!
