- Summary:
-
A class project undertaken in an English-as-a-Second-Language class is described and presented. Students participating in the project were union employees in a Manhattan electronics factory, and most were native Spanish speakers. The project's objective was to produce an illustrated book and tapes to document work and union experience in the factory, using the oral history process, and to, simultaneously develop student literacy skills and foster reflection and criticism about factory conditions. The resulting publication, entitled "The Life of I.E.H. People in Local 259," consists of a series of personal histories of workers and interviews of the chief shop steward, quality assurance control director, and two long-time company workers. Some photographs are included, but may not reproduce well. (MSE) (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse on Literacy Education)
