Kinnaman Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2004 7:40 AM To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: [NIFL-FAMILY:1957] ESL Family Literacy Program Research Hi, My name is Marcy Kinnaman and I am a graduate student at the University of Maryland, Baltimore School Of Social Work. As part of my curriculum I have been assigned to do research for an ESL family literacy program. The program is run by the Carlos Rosario International Career Center in Washington, D.C. They are a model program for adult ESL education, however, this is their first experience with family literacy. They just started their literacy program last year and they have asked me and two other students to conduct research on programs like theirs throughout the country to determine best- practices as well as tools to measure effectiveness. Currently, the program is run in two local elementary schools. The students are parent's of the children that attend these schools. They have had problems with retention, recruitment practices, and measuring outcomes. I am looking for any information or resources that would assist me in this research. I appreciate any help that I can get. Thanks a lot! Marcy Kinnaman ------- End of Forwarded Message -------
