Women and Illiteracy: The Need for Gender Specific Programming in Adult Literacy Education.
Carmack, Nancy A.
Adult Basic Education, v2 n3 p176-94 Fall 1992
Women acquire knowledge and identity in different ways. The history of women's educational inequities, current state of women's literacy, and methods of literacy programs justify gender-specific programing based on adult learning theories that are focused on construction of experience and perspective transformation.
