- Kia ora and welcome. Graeme Smith from ALEC here again This presentation takes you through what you need to know about part 1 of this training – the New Zealand Context You may wish to refer to your Study Guide or Assessment Guide for further information.
- Before we get into the context, we need to take a look at some of the acronyms we use in this field But… what’s an acronym? Anyone know What acronyms have we used so far? What other acronyms do you know from education?
- How many of these do you know? Hopefully some of them will be familiar
- What acronyms do you use? Does your industry have it’s own technical language or jargon?
- So what about it? What’s the context for adult literacy and numeracy in Aotearoa New Zealand? Well to get some basic understanding of the context we need to discuss the following Key initiatives & background Current definitions used by the TEC and others Reasons for low levels of literacy and numeracy Impacts of low literacy and numeracy Resources you might already have access to Specialist organisations that can help We’ll get into all that shortly, but what about we back up and figure out what we mean by literacy and numeracy
- Different perspectives = Different definitions Discussion: How would your friends or whanau define literacy and numeracy if you asked them? Even for yourself or your learners... what connotations do these words have? So what comes to mind when you hear the words literacy, numeracy? For your learners? Connotation = qualities or ideas that a word makes you think of that are more than its basic meaning Photo cards: What is literacy and numeracy for Maori? Carpenter Video: What about for trades? How would a trades person define literacy and numeracy? Matching cards: How do big government and others define literacy and numeracy

- Kete as metaphor
- We need to look at the present situation as well as forward to the future, but first can we look back? Can we construct a whakapapa of key events impacting literacy and numeracy in Aotearoa New Zealand? Timeline?
- So, what do we really mean by literacy and numeracy Let’s have a look at some of the official definitions Do the matching activity MATCHING ACTIVITY

- Discussion point Give participants one or two topics from the list and ask them to discuss, brainstorm, and mind map as much as they can about it. They can discuss their own learners and context. Set a time limit and ask participants to report back.
- What does it all mean? What are the IMPACTS for ? Our society Us in our work Communities For learners on a personal level What about for training? For business?
- Ask the question: What is the specific impact of low numeracy in the 21st century workplace? Go to Readings Guide and open at (D). Discuss orange cover pages as relevant. The first page is the cover of the journal. Turn over for the actual article. Give 1 minute to skim headings, boxes, and graphs. Then divide the class in two groups. Ask one group to scan pages 10 – 11 from Greater Employment Opportunities and the other group to scan Employment in Day to Day Transactions for answers to the question above. Discuss again as points arise.
- Do you experience attrition through the recruitment process? How much? What causes attrition? How much of that is preventable? How could it be prevented?
