ATTENTION - To all subscribers interested in adult reading research

The 47th International Reading Association Convention will be held in San
Francisco on April 28-May 2, 2002. As part of the Convention, IRA offers a
series of Institutes on Sunday, April 28. You must pre-register for these
Institutes. To download registration information or to register online, go
to http://www.reading.org.

Of particular interest to adult educators - and those in family literacy -
is Institute #13: Teaching Reading to Adults: Effective Research-Based
Strategies. In this day-long session, you will hear research findings from
several ongoing studies and applications of findings from those studies.
Included on the speaker list are John Comings and John Strucker (Harvard,
NCSALL), Nickie Askov (Penn State, Goodling Institute for Research in Family
Literacy), Sandra Baxter and John Kruidenier (National Institute for
Literacy), Judy Alamprese (Abt Associates), Heide Spruck Wrigley (Aguirre),
and Miriam Burt (National Center for ESL Literacy Education).

If you have questions about the institute, you can contact Barbara Van Horn
at BLV1@psu.edu.
