Family literacy colleagues,

A National Center for Family Literacy study whose findings were  
released today found that adult literacy results can improve as much  
as one grade level gain for every 10 hours to 13 hours of instruction.

I wonder if anyone can shed some light on these NCFL findings. Other  
studies I have seen suggest that anywhere from 50-150 hours are  
needed for each grade level gain. These findings are extraordinary.
