Accomm odating Adults with Disabilities in Adult Education Programs Developed by: The University of Kansas Center for Research on Learning Division of Adult Studies 1122 West Campus Dr., JR Pearson Hall, Rm. 517 Lawrence, KS 66045 Phone: (785) 864-7085 Funded by a grant from: The U.S. Department of Education, National Institute for Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) Adult education program staff confront significant challenges of diverse learner needs, very limited resources, and fragmented support as they respond to their mission "of improving educational opportunities for adults who lack the level of literacy skills needed to be effective citizens and productive employees." This challenge is significantly increased for the estimated 30% of adult education participants with disabilities (USDE Office of Vocational and Adult Education, 1995). For many of these individuals with disabilities, adult education requires substantial modification of the typical approaches to assessment, instruction, and enrollees' responses. These modifications are required to accommodate the learner's unique needs. The purpose of this three year research and demonstration project was to provide adult educators and adults with disabilities with validated accommodations useful in instruction and assessment. These accommodations, along with information about their legal rights and responsibilities, helped the individuals meet their educational needs and successfully function in employment and community settings.

Home About Mathematica What's New Publications ... Search Adult Education Programs: How Effective Are They? Now more than ever, it is important to understand which adult education programs are effective in helping educationally disadvantaged adults improve their basic literacy and numeracy skills so that they can succeed in their lives as workers, citizens, and parents. Mathematica has studied federal adult education programs as well as the disparate cluster of organizations that serve an equally diverse group of out-of-school adults. Our study found that programs are broad in scope, vary by state, and often serve multiple goals of workforce development, self-sufficiency, citizenship, and social justice. We also identified important gaps in what is known about program impacts and established a framework for future research in this area. We have examined what makes workplace literacy programs effective. Our five-year longitudinal study found that these programs can have positive short-term impacts on participants. For example, they not only can improve literacy skills; they can also change career and educational plans and literacy habits at home. Furthermore, the more instruction given, the greater the impacts, so sustained commitment from employers is important. Because adult education programs vary so much by state, little has been known at the federal level about how states distribute federal and state funds to providers of adult education programs. Yet states have considerable freedom in distributing federal dollars. Our study of these funding patterns found great diversity across states. For example, the funding states contribute is highly variable, as are the sources of these funds. In some states, federal funds dominate; in others, state money forms the bulk of adult education dollars.

HAS Perek Yomi Ivrit LaKol Talmud Study ... Lexington Institute House Of Ascending Studies, 2002 - 2003 Perek Yomi is Starting its Second Cycle And We'd Like to Have You Join Us Members of Perek Yomi have been reading the entire Hebrew Bible (but not in Hebrew) one chapter a day. The program was started by the Conservative movement 2 1/2 years ago, on SimHat Torah , with the reading of Joshua Chapter 1, which is not really the beginning of the Bible. This past fall we completed the last book of the Bible, Chronicles, and came around to the real beginning, as in "In the beginning," Genesis 1. We completed the reading of the Bible with Deuteronomy Chapter 34 on April 18, and many of us are continuing on to Joshua again. We have found that, each time we read it, we find something new. Two Perek Yomi study groups were created at Temple Emunah, one meeting monthly (the first Thursday of each month) , the other meeting bi-weekly (every other Monday). Both groups plan to continue, and both groups are actively seeking new members. The plan of the monthly group is simple: after they finished the last chapter of Deuteronomy on April 18 they returned to Joshua Chapter 1 on April 19 and are continuing on from there.

The Adult Education and Program Study (AEPS) aims to provide national level information about adult education programs and their participants. AEPS consists of 2 phases: In the first stage, the AEPS Program Survey will study the characteristics of adult education programs and the kinds of services being offered through the administration of a questionnaire to a representative sample of adult education providers. In the second phase, the AEPS Learner Survey will select a smaller group of adult education programs to assess the literacy skills of their enrollees. It will use ISA literacy assessment instruments with a representative sample of adult education participants from programs funded under Title II (i.e., Adult Education and Family Literacy, Title II of the Workforce Investment Act). Assessments will be conducted in Spanish and English in order to compare literacy outcomes in Spanish and English for Spanish-speakers. Top What can we learn from the AEPS?
