David,

 

The videos sound like they would be a great addition to our career
exploration portion of our program.  I see this as a possible way to
peak the students' interest and make them want to learn more about a
profession.  One of the toughest barriers that our students face is
choosing a career that they enjoy and will want to work towards.  I
would really appreciate the link.

 

Thank you,

 

Jennifer L. Anderson

David, 

I have been reading your info about the videos.  In South Carolina we
now have a Transition Specialist in each Adult Ed. program.  This person
works with our students to help them to move to higher ed, the military,
or a job. These videos would be a great help.  I would appreciate the
access information.  Thanks, Ann

Dear David,
I have been away finally able to read and respond to my e-mails. I would
love to
have the access video information you mentioned on 8/24/07. There are
several
reasons,initially,I teach EFF students who in the past could have used
the
material; and secondly,its a great resource and benefit for my current
and
future classes.
Thanks,
Hugh D. Snow
