ALNARC

Online Forum 2002

15th March to 12 April 2002

Dear Colleagues,

The Adult Literacy and Numeracy Australian Research Consortium (ALNARC) is convening an online forum in March and April 2002. The ALNARC Online Forum 2002 is the culmination of national research activities and is being coordinated by the Queensland Branch of ALNARC. The aim of the forum is to stimulate discussion in policy and research environments about the extent to which key policy areas integrate literacy and numeracy learning into their funding and strategic planning. During the forum a number of papers will be tabled, from a wide variety of authors and community settings.

The forum will be held online from 15 March to 12 April 2002, during which time up to 10 discussion papers will be available for you to read, download and discuss online. If you would like to receive email notification of when the forum has started and papers are available for discussion, please register your interest by 8 March 2002, by visiting the forum website at www.staff.vu.edu.au/alnarc/onlineforum.

Dr Rosie Wickert is our coordinator for the online discussion forum. Rosie is an experienced practioner, advisor and researcher in the field of adult literacy and numeracy. She is Associate Professor and Assistant (Academic Development) to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) at the University of Technology, Sydney (UTS).

Our discussion papers come from a variety of fields including: economy and employability, environment, women, health, youth, aged care services, workplace learning, correctional services, financial services and social exclusion, employment and unemployment, and regional VET.

We encourage you to forward this email onto other colleagues who may also be interested in participating in the forum. Thank you for your interest in the forum, and we look forward to your active participation during March and April 2002.



Kind regards,
Dr Jean Searle
Director, Queensland Centre of ALNARC
