Access to all students, on all levels of profieciency is important. Access means financing as well as security for computers,etc. Many adult classes are in locations where security is an issue. Another critical issue is the training of teachers to use technology as part of their instructional program. I see technology as part of the training of all adult education teachers. Role of technology - I see technology taking adult education to greater intgegration of preparation of skills need for the workplace and general education . I also see it bringing language instruction to a new and different level. Some of the new programs are excellent, including the ones for pronounciation. Myra Baum (Baumvv @aol.com)
