Supporting ESL learners in LBS programs
This year, one of Literacy Link South Central’s research projects (completed in partnerships with our provincial colleagues at QUILL Learning Network, Project READ, Mid North Network, and Literacy Network Northeast) was to research a possible gap in language training services in rural Ontario* and look at the resulting impact on adult literacy programs.
The result of the research is the report Literacy and Basic Skills: A Pathway to Supporting ESL Learners in Rural Ontario. The goal of the report is to:
- Identify, acknowledge and explain the increasing demand for LBS services by newcomers in rural communities
- Provide best practices and suggestions LBS service providers could use to deliver high quality programming to these learners
- Make recommendations for systemic changes that need to happen if BS service providers are to continue serving ESL learners in rural Ontario.
We hope you'll read this report and share your thoughts with us! From now through Tuesday, March 28, 2023 we will have a survey available to gather feedback, and as a thank you for completing the survey, we will draw the names of two respondents and send them each a $50 Indigo gift card.
