Hello Janet and others,

You might want to have a look at the Harnessing Technology Webpage.  It 
is organized not by technology area (software, websites, training, etc),
but instead, by topics and questions of interest to teachers and tutors 
of adults. For each question or problem, there are technology answers 
and solutions which teachers have found which address it.  All of the 
questions/problems and most of the solutions have been offered by 
practitioners in the adult education and literacy field.

You'll find the Web page at  http://www.alri.org/harness.html
