Workplace Education Resources: An Annotated Bibliography.
Johnston, Wendy
This annotated bibliography, which was developed for workplace program developers and practitioners, policy planners, researchers, and others interested in workplace education, lists 182 documents devoted to the workplace education field in Canada. Annotations are provided for 68 documents. The remaining 114 are listed as further readings. Documents are grouped into four main sections as follows: perspectives (general information, policy, surveys and critiques, research, critical views); partners (business, labor, partnerships); practice (good practice, program development, needs assessment, evaluation, curriculum development); and resources (clear language resources and other bibliographies and collections). A wide range of publication types are represented, including the following: anthologies; position papers; synthesis reports; conference proceedings; reports of research studies; essays; documents directed toward workers, practitioners, labor unions, and businesses; and project reports. Each subsection begins with a brief description of some of the issues identified by the literature. Each annotation contains some or all of the following: document title and authors; publisher; page length; year of publication; price; information about obtaining the document; summary of those portions of the document that are relevant to workplace education in Canada; perspective from which the document is written; and comments on the document's usefulness to specific categories of users.
