Summary
 

Tries to summarize some things instructors need to know about their aboriginal students to effectively help them to develop the purposeful literacy skills they are seeking. Secondly, the likely problems Aboriginal students may face in becoming literate are examined.

 

The final section of the paper outlines the reading teaching strategies and activities that will help traditionally orientated Aboriginal adults to learn to use literacy purposefully.
