Elliott, Claire
Centre for Literacy of Quebec
This bibliography was compiled for The Centre for Literacy's 2005 Summer Institute: "Adult Basic Education & Literacy, Media and Technology." The references and annotations point to relevant research, project, strategy and evaluation reports that describe and analyze the current and future influences of changing technologies on definitions of literacy, lifelong learning policy, and program-level practice in Canada and internationally. This list is far from exhaustive, but represents a core set of readings on the topic and offers a solid starting point for more in-depth research. Research for this bibliography involved thorough searches of: the Education Resources Information Center (ERIC); the National Adult Literacy Database (NALD); the National Institute for Literacy (NIFL) "LINCS" database; the UNESCO Institute for Education Documentation Centre; The Centre for Literacy resource collection; and the web sites of numerous national/international agencies with a clear stake in literacy and lifelong learning.
