From Tom Sticht, International Consultant in Adult Education (Ret.): September Highlights Adult Learners and Educators.
With four major causes for celebrating adult learners and educators, September kicks off a new academic year for adult literacy education across the Nation. Read the whole article describing this month's four celebrations at http://oerinadulted.org/stichtarticles.htm.
Do you ever talk about adult education with your learners? Do you discuss how programs are funded (or not)? Would your students benefit from becoming more familiar about how Adult Education services often bridge gaps that occur between high school and college or the workplace? Would they benefit from reading and writing about services in their communities that also help bridge those gaps?
