Materials intended to serve as the basis for a three semester hour course in methods and materials of instruction in adult basic education (ABE) are presented. The materials are designed for several instructional approaches. They may be used self-instructionally, either as independent units or as a collective group of units. When the units are used in a self-instructional mode, the instructor will serve largely to orient the students to the materials, monitor student progress, and evaluate the students' proficiency assessments.
