Hello Jackie and Don and all ~
I appreciate your introductions and I am glad you are with us on the PD list! 
Don, it’s good to ‘see’ you again (how’ve you been?), and Jackie, I am glad 
you learned about us. We are a diverse group and I feel confident this list 
will continue to enhance connectivity within the PD field.  I have a colleague 
and friend who once left the adult literacy field entirely for the K-12 
classroom, but then gave up the promises of K-12 teaching to return to adult 
education/training.  I wonder if there are others on the list who have had a 
similar experience?

One place for the resource about Mexican education programs could be the ALE 
Wiki, in the ESOL Area:
http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/English_for_Speakers_of_Other_Languages
Check it out and see where you think it fits best.

I hope others will join Jackie and Don in offering intro's, as well as sharing 
the issues you face in teaching and in adult literacy professional 
development.  As always, I look forward to learning from the experiences you 
all bring to this forum.

Best wishes,  Jackie
