Expanding the circle collaborative research to create a culturally responsive family literacy program / [electronic resource] : Alison Gear - 2014. - 1 online resource (p. 61-72) : digital, PDF file
This study documents the creation of a family literacy program developed with, and for, an Indigenous community on the northwest coast of British Columbia. The field of family literacy is juxtaposed with the historical and contemporary school experiences of the community and presented as a means of addressing the imbalance between Indigenous and Western knowledge systems currently offered through the public education system. Both Indigenous and Western research methods were utilized through a process designed to involve the community in the development of a family literacy program.
