It's with pleasure and sadness that I announce that there's a new issue
of "Focus on Basics" now available at
http://www.ncsall.net/index.php?id=1150
The pleasure? It's a great issue. The sadness, it's the last issue.
It includes articles from a variety of NCSALL researchers on their
research:
--John Strucker on the need for curriculum structure --Steve Reder and
Clare Strawn on the tendency for adults without high school diplomas to
study on there own, and what that means for adult basic education.
(Molly Robertson and Lauri Schoneck write about programs that capitalize
on the motivation to "self-study") --John Tyler on whether GED attainers
are entering postsecondary education at a rate on par with regular high
school completers --Rima Rudd and Jennie Anderson on why it's so hard to
find your way around in healthcare facilities and what we can do about
it --Cristine Smith, Mary Beth Bingman, and Kaye Beall on lessons
learned from ten years of disseminating research Enjoy!
