Thanks for this information David.  Is the City University of New York program available for downloading or otherwise accessible?  Sounds very interesting; would like a sample lesson plan if possible.  Bonnita

In a conversation yesterday I was asked if I know of good examples of  
GED preparation programs which use a popular education, or  
participatory (Freirean) approach.  I am only aware of one, a theme- 
based approach that the City University of New York adult literacy  
GED program has used for over a decade.  If you have others to  
suggest I would be pleased to hear about them.  Thanks.
