What do you think about adult literacy practitioners attending "relevant" K-12 PD? Are there any programs or states that already do this? If so, how does it work in your area? Do any of you have suggestions that you would like to share here for Debbie? I would be happy to pass them along. Thanks, Jackie ----Original Message----- From: Debbie Yoho [dwyoho@earthlink.net] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 1:38 PM To: david@collings.com Subject: RE: adult ed K-12 links on aaace list For some time I have pondered the value of actively fostering collaborations and dialog between the K-12 systems and adult ed, as have many in our field. Even in places where both programs are run by the same school district, there is little contact between the two. One place where a start might be made is to request that adult ed teachers be allowed to attend inservice sessions designed for high school teachers that seem relevant. As district employees, they can hardly be barred! But first the adult ed teachers need to have the attitude that they can and should both share their knowledge in such sessions as well as seek out input from the high school people. Any other ideas?
