Literacy – Working with First Nation People

It’s a long way from the cold northern reaches of Canada to the heat and dust of outback South Australia. In this interview with PBA FM’s Tony Ryan, Michelle Eady from the University of Wollongong speaks of her formative experiences in Canada and her work there with First Nation people, and about some of her more recent work in literacy and computing, with Aboriginal Australians in remote parts of South Australia. The interview was recorded in October 2009 in Perth, during the Annual Conference of the Australian Council for Adult Literacy.
