CCL: Reading the Future: Michel Gratton

The Canadian Council on Learnings new Reading the Future report provides Canada's first projections of adult literacy levels, through to 2031; an unprecedented look at the face of low literacy; and effective approaches to improve literacy among six identified groups.

Success stories: Turning the page on low literacy is a video series where the profiled adults explain what motivated them to improve their literacy skills and how that decision has changed their lives. After years of struggling in large classrooms, Michel Gratton quit high school to join the workforce. It was when he was required to take a safety test at work that he realized the importance of literacy skills to advancing his career objectives. At age 46, Michel returned to school to finish his Grade 12 and improve his computer literacy skills.

Hello,

Unfortunately our Reading the Future series is not bilingual. Four of the videos are in English, and two are in French. However, the Reading the Future report that accompanies the video series is in English and French.

Thank-you for your interest!
