Jenny,
   I, of course, recommend that you have a set of all back issues of
Focus on Basics as a good resource and starting place for new
teachers. You can order these by e-mailing Jessica Mortensen at
fob@worlded.org. We've published 4 issues, so the cost would be $28.
 
  The next issue of Focus on Basics, which will be mailed and posted
on the web in a month, includes information on many publications and
videos that may be of use to you. 
For example: 
	ALMA (Adult Literacy Media Alliance) and TV411	This is a
series of literacy videos, accompanying print materials designed for
use by individuals in their homes, in literacy classes, as well as in
community settings such as libraries, health clinics, employment
centers, churches, and banks in urban and rural regions throughout the
country. The Starter kit includes 13 TV411 video cassettes and 10
print packages, each containing 13 TV411 Workbooks and one User's
Guide. (Internet component planned.)	http://www.tv411.org/alma.html
 	
	Captured Wisdom: Stories of Integrating Technology into Adult
Literacy Instruction	This is a series of multimedia CD-ROMs on best
practices of integrating technology into ABE/GED/ESOL instruction. 
The videos of actual classes are complemented by questions raised by
adult education practitioners and answered by the cooperating
teachers, ensuring that the resource will address the concerns that
teachers may have about using technology with adult
learners.	http://www.ncrel.org/cw/al/

Hi All

I have a significant amount of money to spend on equipping a
resource centre to provide support for teacher trainers,
teacher trainees and new teachers of ABE and ESOL. I would
be most grateful if you could suggest any publications,
audio-visual materials or software that you would consider
to be 'core.' The resource centre is going to be based
around a web site and so I would also appreciate any
recommendations you may have regarding useful on-line
materials. Would anyone happen to know of any good teacher
training videos?
Sorry for any cross posting.
Thanks in advance,
