Family, Literacy, Development and Culture: Interconnections, Reconstructions.

Bhola, H. S.

Convergence, v29 n1 p34-45 1996

The family is seen within a network of relationships with schools and workplaces within the context of communities and cultures. Family literacy focuses on the family as a whole and uses it as the preferred place of delivery. (SK)
