Reaching Adult Learners in New Ways
Live via satellite: Thursday, May 3, 2001  3:30 - 5:30 ET
Description
  Much has been made of the promise of technology-it can expand access 
to classes,
address different learning styles more effectively, and increase the 
number of adults
that your program can serve. But we all know that capitalizing on 
this promise for adult
literacy involves more than simply plugging in a computer or turning 
on a TV. As we
look back on a decade in which technology became widely available and 
used, which
applications are proving to be practical for adult learning? In the 
next few years, which
new technologies will offer instructional possibilities that can 
benefit adult learners? And
  beyond the technology itself, what is the larger context needed to 
truly expand the
  reach of adult learning programs? Please join us and your adult 
education colleagues
  across the country on May 3 to explore how various technologies can 
impact your
learners and your programs!
