Dear NIFL-Technology Colleagues,

I have just updated my (free) list of recommended free and commercial 
computer-assisted instruction software.  You will find it in hypertext  
and .pdf formats at:

	http://home.comcast.net/~djrosen/softwarelist.html

Some of the free software on that list -- and perhaps other software 
which I don't know about -- is excellent.  I may write an article on 
just how good some of the free adult literacy education software is, 
describing a few of some of the best pieces, particularly those for 
which there is evidence of effectiveness.

•  If you have recommendations of free instruction software that you 
have used with adult literacy education (including ESOL) students,  
please post a message to the list or to me.

•  If you know of any research on free adult literacy education 
software please let me know.

•  If you have software to recommend for my Software Recommendations 
list,  or a concern about the list, please let me know.

Thank you.

David J. Rosen
