Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

We are looking for assistance in conducting a literature review characterizing different programs for youth literacy. The main product will be an article on the review submitted for publication.

We believe this project will include:

  • Assist with finding ways to promote literacy in underserved communities within the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
  • Write an academic manuscript for publication.
  • Identify programs that youth can be a part of to improve their literacy skills.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
  • Writing and revise a manuscript
  • Using Zotero (for reference management)
  • Meet weekly to complete study
  • Support submission of manuscript and speaking with collaborators
