X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas X-Mailer: Novell GroupWise Internet Agent 5.5.5.1 Status: O Content-Length: 1159 Lines: 31 In a recent posting to the NLA list, Tom Sticht raised a good question. NCSALL's mission is "to conduct and disseminate research that helps build effective, cost-efficient adult education and literacy programs." In NCSALL's five year report (available on http://ncsall.gse.harvard.edu, it's report No. 23), it states: the "measurement of success remains the same as well: Practitioners can cite ways that NCSALL has helped them to improve practice." (p.100) Tom asks NLA list members to cite ways that they or their program or someone they know has been helped by the first five years of the NCSALL work. And if so, in what specific ways. I'd like to hear the same from FOB list members. How has FOB --- and in particular, but not exclusively, articles reporting NCSALL research --- helped you change your practice? While anecdotal evidence will not stand up in research court, it's a start.
