Why does reading and writing matter in modern societies? How do we know adult literacy education does any good? Why Literacy Matters offers a contribution to the continuing debate about both accountability in adult learning in general terms and the specific development of systems in adult literacy and numeracy. In recent years, a number of arguments have been advanced in support of adult literacy and numeracy programmes, such as suggestions that they contribute to a more productive workforce and address the inadequacies of schooling. There have been ever-increasing demands for such programmes to prove their worth, but a lack of hard evidence. Through a presentation of the wider outcomes of literacy and numeracy learning, discussing the complexities and potential of such work, this book is an attempt to address some of these questions, by firstly examining the research evidence, then looking at what would be a useful step in understanding the effects of literacy education, with strategic suggestions. Table of contents: Introduction Part one: How can we think about the effects of literacy education? 1. Three ways to look at literacy: A brief review 2. Literacies as capabilities 3. Understanding outcomes 4. Measuring matters Part two: Reviewing the evidence 5. The literate mind 6. Economic effects 7. Literacy and health 8. Family values 9. Social and political impacts Part three: Reflections and conclusions 10. Literacy matters 11. Implications for adult literacy education policy and practice.
