Reference
	Hampton, Roberta S. 1986. "Utilization of cultural learning styles in Ghana." In NOLSpecial Issue 1 (1986):31–37. Interest level: lay specialist.

Summary

Introduces literacy along culturally acceptable patterns. Involves chiefs and elders in starting classes and has them choose appropriate teachers from the community as the first step. Emphasizes a traditional means of learning but expounds few specifics. Gives examples of one-to-one teaching as opposed to classroom setting and unison reading. Relates all education in traditional cultures to the whole society.

Evaluation
	Is an interesting article. Could use more detail and more useful information to make it better.
