Low-Level and Non-Reader Program "LNR." Adult Basic Education Reading Center, 310 Project. Report, July 1984-June 1985.
J. F. Ingram State Technical Coll., Deatsville, AL.
The "LNR" Program was established at J. F. Ingram State Technical College as an individualized reading program for low-level and nonreaders (LNRs) who are incarcerated at one of four prisons in central Alabama. The program combined the following instructional methods: individual work, group work, instructor/student interaction, lecture, and computer lab. The program was divided into six centers designed to help students develop and maintain a functional reading level of 6.0: decoding, vocabulary building, comprehension development, dictionary usage, reference, and filling out applications and giving and taking directions. The program was evaluated by a three-member evaluation team. The first appendix to this report contains lists of materials and equipment used at each of the six skills centers along with a list of objectives and evaluation criteria addressed at each center. Other appendixes include demographic information on the program participants, a sample personal data sheet, a test review form, and a student check list. (MN)
