Adult Literacy Programs: What Students Say.

Nwakeze, Peter C.; Seiler, Lauren H.

Adult Learning, v5 n1 p17-18,24 Sep-Oct 1993

A longitudinal study of 162 New York Adult Literacy Initiative students found that 97% were satisfied, felt the learning environment was supportive, and felt the teacher's attitude was critical. Retention suggestions were to use daily living experiences and challenging curricula, broaden the curriculum for men's interests, and attend to safety and child care needs. (SK)
