Hi,

I¹m posting this on behalf of someone who isn¹t on the list and is currently
experiencing some problems with her e-mail so she can¹t get on it anytime
soon. I know you all are a rich resource of information and if you can
assist, we both would appreciate it. Here¹s her request:

Maggie,

Thank you for sharing my question with the technology listserv.

I am looking for suggestions for engaging, adult literacy software. We are
expanding our literacy program to include computer labs so that we can
immediately assist students that would normally be placed on our waiting
list. I need software for adults and teens who are low literate. I have
found software for our elementary aged students that is very engaging.
However, much of the software I have previewed for older audiences is much
dryer. I do not want something for children, but would like something
interesting. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Caroline
