The following item, submitted by Kaye Beall, Outreach Coordinator/ 
NCSALL Dissemination Project,  appeared on the NIFL Content Standards  
Discussion List and I thought many of the subscribers to the Family  
Literacy Discussion List would find it of interest.


The newest volume of the Review of Adult Learning and Literacy:  
Connecting Research, Policy, and Practice (Vol. 6, 2006) is now  
available from NCSALL. For more information, please visit the NCSALL  
Web site at http://www.ncsall.net.
It includes chapters on:
▪         demographic change and low-literacy Americans
▪         the role of vocabulary in adult basic education (ABE)
▪         implications of research on spelling for ABE
▪         issues in teaching speaking skills to adult ESOL learners
▪         the preparation and stability of the ABE teaching workforce
▪         the adult literacy system in Ireland
▪         broad-based organizing as a vehicle for promoting adult  
literacy
