Silja, and others

I'm not sure, Silja, why it looked bolded and in big fonts on your 
browser. What you added looks just fine.  But for others who may be 
confused:
Silja attended a workshop I did today which included information on the 
Adult Literacy Education (ALE) Wiki.  I encouraged participants to look 
at -- and add to -- ALE Wiki pages of interest.  She did.  Had she made 
a mistake, no problem; Wiki pages are very easily fixed or restored. 

The ALE Wiki is an easy-to-use, collaborative environment for adult 
literacy education (including ESOL/ESL) practitioners (e.g. teachers) 
and researchers, devoted to documenting and adding to knowledge from 
research and professional wisdom.

To view the Wiki page Silja added to:

    http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/StatePD
