For some time now I have been posting messages on various listservs 
about adult literacy from an adult learners perspective. I have said a 
lot of things about adult literacy through the years and some of these 
things are being said again in this discussion. Many adult learners 
would like to say how they feel about their programs and what's going on 
in adult literacy, but they are not yet comfortable about expressing 
themselves using a computer. That's why we need advanced training and we 
also need the VALUE’s leadership training. In the last few days I have 
heard some of the people from the literacy field talking about adult 
literacy in a way I have never heard them talk before. It’s almost as 
though you are starting to see adult literacy through the eyes of the 
adult learner. As you think about what you have said in your postings in 
this discussion, think about whose eyes you are seeing adult literacy 
through. Some good things can come out of all of this discussion.
