 For almost 35 years, Laurie Gould has demonstrated her commitment to literacy. When Laurie joined the Basic Education Department of Vancouver Community College in 1974, she soon became instrumental in the early design and implementation of adult literacy programming.
Since that time, she has served on numerous provincial and Pan-Canadian committees related to literacy, designed innovative curriculum and assessment resources, created original reading materials for the adult literacy learner, edited health and government information for plain language, worked directly with scores of adult learners in the classroom and in assessments, and generously shared her vast expertise with colleagues throughout BC and Canada.
In this, her 35th year working in the field, Laurie continues to serve the literacy community with a strong sense of dedication to both literacy learners and practitioners.
