In recognition of National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week on September 23 - 29, World Education is hosting the Adult Education and Family Literacy Week Quiz Challenge!
For each day of Literacy Week, we have a short quiz on a new theme, including: The GED, Citizenship, Family Literacy, and more. Take each quiz and receive a “badge” to post on social media sites and show your friends what you know about issues adult learners face and that you have participated in the Challenge! The Monday quiz focuses on Family Literacy.
Family Literacy Quiz
The effects of low literacy, such as dropping out of school and low income, are often passed on from parent to child. Family literacy programs work to break this cycle by teaching parents and their children, including giving parents the tools they need to help their children learn. Test how much you know about family literacy with this quiz!
Good luck!

Today's quiz is about GED!
GED Quiz
Each year, hundreds of thousands of people take the GED (General Educational Development Tests) in the hopes of passing and earning a high school equivalency credential and going on to college or a better job or career. Take the Quiz to find out how much you know about the test.
Citizenship Quiz
To become a U.S. citizen, applicants need to demonstrate an ability to read, write, and speak English, and have a knowledge and understanding of U.S. history and government. The test consists of two components – an English and a civics component. Take the Citizenship Quiz and see how you do on actual practice questions for the civics portion of the test.
Good luck!!

I wanted to reiterate that the quiz links in this post are for informational purposes only. A group of us at World Education pulled together the quizzes to celebrate the National Adult Education and Family Literacy week and increase awareness of the various facets of the Adult Education system and services. The data collected from these surveys is not going to be used in any way. Please feel free to share these questions with your students to test their knowledge!
