Literacy Learning in Saskatchewan: A Review of Adult Literacy Programs (1989)
(Saskatchewan Instructional Development and Research Unit, Faculty of Education, University of Regina, 1990-06) Hindle, Judith K.; Saskatchewan Instructional Development and Research Unit
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The government has really done something this time. They've put their dollars in the right place. I mean, if you ask somebody at the university about that they'd probably say, 'Hey, why help them dummies, give us the money.' They're already smart. Try to get a few people kicking around who can't do it - give them help too. (Stan, a learner, age 45) GOAL OF THE EVALUATION To acquire information on the outcomes of the Saskatchewan Literacy Campaign for the purpose of assessing Campaign effectiveness to date and making decisions in the future. INTRODUCTION This is a report of a program evaluation project undertaken for the Saskatchewan Literacy Council during the 1987 to 1990 Saskatchewan Literacy Campaign. The evaluation encompassed 15 literacy programs which received developmental or supplemental funding from the Saskatchewan Literacy Council in 1988 and 1989. The evaluation was conducted over the 12-month period December 2, 1988, to December 2, 1989, by the Saskatchewan Instructional Development and Research Unit (SIDRU) at the University of Regina. Funding for the project was received through Saskatchewan Education, from the National Literacy Secretariat of the Government of Canada, through Saskatchewan Education, as part of the National Literacy Campaign.

A Comparative Assessment of Four Online Learning Programs
(Saskatchewan Instructional Development and Research Unit, 2005-03) Bale, David; Saskatchewan Instructional Development and Research Unit
This study examines and compares four on-line learning programs to assess their suitability and potential for meeting the learning needs of First Nations high schools and for upgrading students. The following question is addressed: What types of on-line learning show potential for meeting the unique needs of First Nations Alberta and Saskatchewan learners? A mixed method (both quantitative and qualitative) research approach was used. Particular attention was paid to the appropriateness of the programs for Aboriginal students, Alberta and Saskatchewan curricula congruence, the roles of teachers and facilitators, learner supports and resources, website design features, and potential learning barriers, as well as best practices. Data were gathered while visiting each of the four sites and by telephone interviews and discussions with administrators, staff, students and teachers. Data were also derived from an on-line student questionnaire. The websites of the four schools, and other related documents, were also analyzed. The results of the analysis of the information collected show that many excellent features are built into each program. Some features show potential for meeting First Nations student needs, while others raise issues about their acceptability, some because of inflexibility in their use and others because a purported need is, itself, an issue. Other program options that were not examined in this study may contain additional features that could have the potential of meeting First Nations needs.
