Session: Participatory Action Research - Listening to Women's Voices
This interactive workshop will introduce and model a process of participatory action research that can be implemented in or outside of the ABE or ESOL classroom. Participatory action research brings students and teachers together to learn about issues that are of import to them; these might include women and HIV, neighborhood violence, children’s health, or local elections. The possibilities are endless! Workshop participants will learn about the principles and practices of participatory action research and will have the opportunity to act as researchers in an abbreviated version of the process.
