All people communicate, however, the value ascribed to different forms of communication makes communication meaningful between different participants. The government initiative Skills for Life‚ works from a set of assumptions about literacy skills and often presents such teaching and learning strategies as non-problematic and locates the deficit within the individual learners. This course seeks to identify and analyse the problematic nature of the context of communications. It reinforces the need to place equal value on different means of communication.
