Ouane, Adama
This document contains three parts: part 1 provides the framework of post-literacy; part 2 describes putting the learning strategies into action; and part 3 provides conclusions. In part 1, post-literacy is defined and learning strategies for post-literacy and continuing education are identified. In part 2, the following learning strategies are discussed: (1) using printed media, such as textbooks, supplementary reading materials, extension literature, and the rural or community press; (2) the use of radio, TV, and audiovisual media; (3) using distance education and correspondence courses; (4) rural libraries, mobile exhibitions, and museums; (5) traditional folk media and games; (6) local study and action groups; and (7) out-of-school programs, award-bearing schemes, institutions parallel to the school system, and other general and vocational nonformal courses. Part 3 includes two examples of the integrated use of learning strategies: Action for Popular Culture programs in Colombia and Village Continuing Education Centers in India. References and reading lists are included in each part. A glossary of terms and a listing of acronyms and abbreviations is provided. (CML)
