National Adult Literacy Database

The author developed a Workshop on the Listening and Reading Processes of Adults and presented it to groups in Louisiana, Kentucky, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, and Montreal. The total of nearly 250 participants were asked to complete a survey that included questions about the knowledge and training they had about phonemics, phonics, listening and reading processes of adult literacy students.

This report includes three parts: Part 1 presents an overview of the goals, objectives and expected outcomes of the Workshop. Part 2 presents a summary of the data obtained with the participant survey, and Part 3 presents a list of publications used in preparing the Workshop notebook.
