Our goal is to educate adult learners about voting and the topical electoral issues, and mobilize them to vote in the 2004 elections. We would like to offer some of the resources we are developing to any state or region from outside of New England that is interested in helping adult literacy (ESOL ABE,GED, EDP etc.) programs prepare adult learners to vote in the 2004 elections. Specifically, the March 2004 issue of our Change Agent paper will be focused on "Voting in the 2004 Elections." This edition will not feature specific candidates for office, but it will cover topics such as: - Why vote? Examples of when a handful of votes mattered greatly - Questions to ask and steps to take in picking the candidate that best represents you - How to evaluate campaign ads and read election literature critically - Historical perspectives on voting - Student narratives of their experiences with voting - Sections on five hot issues in the presidential elections: jobs and the economy, health care, money and politics, security and civil liberties. Most articles will include learning activities to develop adult learners' reading, writing, math and critical thinking skills. If you are interested in replicating our VERA campaign check out www.nelrc.org/VERA for more information. We can make the following resources available to you so you don't have to start from scratch: - "Join The VERA 04 Campaign" flyer as a PageMaker file that can be modified easily for different state contexts by states. - "Preparing Adult Learners to Vote in the 2004 Elections" workshop outline will be available on http://www.nelrc.org/VERA web site by March 2004. NELRC is also providing training-of-trainers workshops for professional development providers and interested practitioners from around New England on using this issue of The Change Agent in instruction. Other states are most welcome to use and adapt our outlines to promote this issue of The Change Agent and adult learner voting. We may be able to make our online VERA registration on Zoomerang available to you. Call me to discuss specifics.I hope many of you will join the New England states to get the vote out this year. Call for papers: Journal of Language, Identity, and Education Special topic issue: Queer inquiry in language education Guest editor: Cynthia D.

The workshop is one to one and a half hours long, and includes information about the main characteristics of asthma, its symptoms and triggers. Through a participatory and interactive environment, learners not only become aware of basic information relating to asthma, but they also learn English. This workshop can also include data on how asthma affects Latinos, and local community resources where they offer bilingual help. The workshop is free of cost and its language is applicable to all levels. This is a workshop that could easily be integrated into a health unit or delivered as an isolated informative session and lesson. If you and your learners would like to schedule a workshop, please feel free to contact me via e-mail or by phone. Thank you.

All students participate in an internship during their time in class which is geared towards their career goals. Whether a student is interested in enhancing their current job skills, finding a new and better job, or going on for further training, they receive individual case management which will further that goal.

From David J. Rosen, EBAE Discussion List Moderator From late October to early December I moderated an online discussion about a National Center for the Study of Adult Learning and Literacy (NCSALL) paper, "Establishing an Evidence-based Adult Education System." More than 200 adult literacy educators from across North America joined in. The purpose of the work group was "to have a thoughtful conversation about establishing an Evidence-based Adult Education System" in the United States. Messages, from practitioners and researchers, were posted in response to three sets of questions. A second discussion will take place from late January into February, 2004. The purpose is to provide an opportunity for a broad range of adult literacy education practitioners, researchers and others to read, react to, and add to the first discussion. A synthesis of the first discussion is online at http://www.alri.org/Rosen/ebae.htm. The NCSALL paper can be downloaded from http://gseweb.harvard.edu/~ncsall/research/occas.htm
. Subscribers to the new discussion will want to read the paper and the
synthesis of the first discussion. To subscribe to this discussion list

from previous bulletins: REMINDERS, RESOURCES:
SABES Resource Lists Available. From Carey Reid [full message here]: As you might know, Massachusetts now has a rigorous, stand-alone ABE teacher's license. SABES, the System for Adult Basic Education Support, is a state-wide staff development system funded by MassDOE. ÷[S]months ago I asked if NLA subscribers were interested in helping SABES build resource lists, by standard, in support of teachers seeking the new license here in Massachusetts. Many of you helped out, thank you, and we've also worked with small groups of people locally to build these 29 lists, now with over 150 resources--books, articles, websites, and videos. The lists are now available on SABES's license support website at http://www.sabes.org/license. You can get quickly to the lists by clicking on the "new resources added" link under What's New, or at any time by using the resources link on the bottom of every webpage. When you arrive at the chart listing the 29 standards, click on any standard to go to the resource list we've compiled for it. The lists are annotated; with the annotations, teachers who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in respect to a particular standard can be more assured they're getting the resource they want or need. If the resource can be viewed or downloaded on the Net, we've provided a link. Additionally, we want to improve these lists, so please email me
if you'd like to suggest additions or changes. BTW, the full list
of resources is also collected in a ProCite bibliography file, so if you
use that software and would like to have your own "instant" database, let
me know and I'll email you the file. As stated earlier, SABES is funded
by the Massachusetts Department of Education. To avoid confusion,
the website is not an official DOE site but rather one of SABES's means
of supporting license-seeking teachers in our state. Links to Massachusetts
DOE webpages, however, are provided on the site.
breathe - everyday yoga at your desk. http://www.mydailyyoga.com/yoga/everyday_yoga.html Professional development initiative: In 1998, I spent time at the RI Dislocated Worker Program, facilitating classes for teachers there so that they could have an opportunity to observe one another's classes and to reflect on their learning and teaching. (The full text of their reflections is available on the LR/RI web site at Writing from the Field - or contact LR/RI for a hard copy). Please let me know if you would like to participate in this process of professional development. All that's required is your willingness to share your reflections about the observation/learning process for others. I hope to build a block of writing and thinking about this and other forms of our own professional development both through the bulletin and the web site. what do you think? LR/RI has had an online survey on its site forever. Previously, those who may have come across the survey were asked to copy and paste it into an email message, or to print it and complete it. Thanks to the brilliant technical support and inservice learning provided by Brown University, the survey can now be completed on line. I'd be grateful if you could please take the time to complete it. While occasional word comes back about the work LR/RI has done, this survey attempts to be somewhat more systematic in considering the work that's done and the work that needs to be accomplished. Please complete the survey at http://www.brown.edu/lrri - scroll down and click on the link to the survey. If you lack web access and wish to complete the survey, please contact LR/RI to receive one via snail mail or fax. Please contact LR/RI if you have information, questions or announcements to share with adult educators in Rhode Island. Bulletins go out at least twice a month; more frequently when there's more to share. To submit information for the next bulletin, please contact LR/RI by phone (401-863-2839), mail (PO Box 1974, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912) or email. back to LR/RI home |
