Hi Melinda,

 

Thanks so much for your feedback - and actually, I agree with you:  I
realize there are a lot of materials to review and I was disappointed (in
myself) for not having gotten the announcement out about a week sooner.  

 

But I'm glad to hear that the resources there are useful and interesting.  I
hope that folks take advantage of them.

I actually think that the preparation materials were quite good and very
well organized.  While I haven't had time to look over everything, I am
going to try to "catch up" at some point.  My only suggestion is that we
have even more than the lead time you gave us for this very important
discussion.  (Please don't think of this as a criticism.  You gave us much
more lead time than most and your "rollout" of this discussion is top
notch.)  Thanks for pulling all of this together.  I really, really
appreciate your taking the lead to help adult literacy practitioners have
ongoing conversations about our discipline.
