I like all the suggestions put forward so far. I'd also add assessment
in online environments - assessing online/computer literacy. I teach
adult literacy via a totally online environment for the most part and
assessment in this area is definitely something I'd like to discuss.

Good morning, afternoon, and evening to you all.  I hope this email
finds
you well.



Happy International Literacy Day!!



I want to welcome new subscribers who have signed on in the past couple
of
months – we now have a total of 715 subscribers on this List.



To start off September, I want to ask you what types of topics that
you
would like to see us discuss here on the Assessment List.  As always, I
will
organize some discussions with special guests, but I would like to
gather
your thoughts and requests on discussion topics as well.



So please send your ideas to either the List, or to me personally, if
you
prefer that.  I will put together a list of the requested topics and
post
them for everyone, and we will go from there!



Thanks so much – I'm looking forward to reading what is on your
minds, and
I'm also looking forward to another interesting year of discussion on
assessment topics in Adult Education.



Marie
