Accountability requirements, state standards, student outcomes,
testing-these issues affect you whether you're an adult ESL teacher, a
program administrator, or a policy maker.

Assessment and evaluation are critical in the planning and implementing
of language and literacy instruction for adults learning English. But
where can you find more information on these issues, given the variety
of contexts and purposes that shape them?

One place to start is the latest addition to NCLE's online resource
collections.  Assessment and Evaluation in Adult ESL brings together
articles, reports, standardized test information, standards documents,
and other readily available resources that discuss methods, questions,
and challenges of assessment and evaluation in language and literacy
instruction for adults learning English.

Take a moment to review the collection on NCLE's Web site at
<http://www.cal.org/ncle/ResAEv.htm>.  You may find just the answers or
examples you need to tackle assessment and evaluation in your own work.

Please also feel free to share with us any comments, suggestions, and
recommendations for additions to the collection (email: maryann@cal.org
