Negotiating Competence: The Impact on Teaching Practice of the Certificate of General Education for Adults (CGEA)
Jill Sanguinetti
Adult Literacy Research Network (Vic) 1995
110 pages ISBN 1 875578 41 2 $16.00
The Certificate of General Education for Adults (CGEA) is a competency-based
framework for assessment and accreditation in Adult Literacy and Basic
Education (ALBE). Its introduction in Victoria has been controversial and
teachers of ALBE have experienced a period of significant challenge in
implementing it in its initial year. Negotiating Competence is the report
of a participatory action research evaluation of the impact of the CGEA
on teaching practice. It documents in detail both positive and negative
outcomes experienced by over 25 practitioners, summarizes a range of issues
for further research and analysis and recommends changes to be made in
producing a revised version of the Certificate.

The papers in this volume were originally prepared by participants as assignments in Adult Literacy Teaching: A Professional Development Course which was offered in 1994. They cover a wide range of topics and perspectives on the work of ALBE practitioners in the contemporary ideological and political context...they will be of interest to all working within ALBE and of special assistance to those on the outside of Adult Literacy practice for understanding how theory and practice in this dynamic field are developing.
