Hello Jane,

Your new project is a valuable one that may provide new insight around
how technology is currently being used to support literacy education as
well as how it may be improved, if necessary.  This topic is of definite
interest to me whereas I am currently working on a Master of Education
thesis entitled, "Adult Literacy Educators' Perceptions of Technology
Integration" that focuses on educators in the Atlantic Provinces.  I
look forward to learning more about your study as well as your findings.
Good luck with the project!  

Lisa Langille

Project

I would like to announce the commencement of a new
project, " Putting Learning Technologies to Work for
Literacy", which is sponsored by the Office of
Learning Technology.  In the next six months, the
extent to which adult literacy learners have access to
learning through technology will be examined and the
degree to which this is done will be analyzed.
A study will be carried out to access the use of
learning technologies in adult education throughout
the province, an asset map of these technologies will
be created and research into what is happening in the
rest of the country will be carried out.  The adult
education community will be surveyed as to how well
they are utilizing learning technologies, and how best
they might be helped to continue, increase or enhance
their use, resulting in an action plan for the optimal
use of learning technologies in the delivery and
support of adult literacy programming in Nova Scotia.
I have been hired to carry out this project for
Literacy Nova Scotia.  I am delighted to have been
chosen to work on a development with such far-reaching
implications and am eager to get started. If you would
have any documentation such as survey or
questionnaires,information or insights which might
help me in my research, I would much appreciate
hearing from you. 

Jane
