The Literacy Line! Napa Valley Adult School: Final Report.
Napa Valley Unified School District, Napa, CA.
This report is an evaluation of an adult workplace literacy and English-as-a-Second-Language program for Napa Valley (California) vineyard workers of limited English proficiency. Many of the classes were held at the worksite. The first section of the report details the project's stated objectives and measures of accomplishment, anecdotal success stories from the perspective of instructors, and data on student achievement for each participating vineyard. Appended materials include a beginning-level oral ESL test, a form-completion test; beginning-level vocabulary; a personal (individualized) spelling list; a vineyard operations vocabulary test; pre- and post-course self-evaluation forms; an oral interview form; a video idea questionnaire; a list of video topics suggested by students; notes and supplementary materials on the video curriculum developed for the project; notes from conference presentations; and a video curriculum evaluation form.
