I have a couple of questions that you may be able to help me with--I hope. 1) Jenny's book describes her experience with students in Canada. I need to find out how prevalent the problem of violence and women is in literacy clsses in the US. In your experience, is this a problem for the women you teach--domestic violence either currently or as children? 2) Do men you teach also have similar problems--number of men and degree of violence? Or is there a difference? 3) If you were writing such a paper, what would you feel essential to include? Facts, which ones? What are your own observations? I would appreciate information on this topic, any insights you may have. I am sure I will have other questions for the list, too. Thanks. Andrea
