This book was released on 2009 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is no secret that America is at risk of losing its place as a world leader in education. Some 88 million adults in America need help with their English as a Second Language (ESL) and basic skills, yet the nation is currently providing services to only 3 million people. The Commission on Adult Literacy calls for bold change at the state and federal levels to address this challenge. The author offers two overarching recommendations: (1) Congress should transform the adult education and literacy system as it is now known into an adult education and workforce skills system with the capacity to effectively serve 20 million adults annually by the year 2020; and (2) Congress and state governments should make readiness for postsecondary education and workforce the primary mission of the adult education and workforce skills system. The recommended federal and state actions offered in this paper aim to increase dramatically the number of adult Americans with limited basic skills who receive basic skills instruction as defined in the Act. They should result in "seamless pathways of instruction" from the lowest levels of proficiency to attainment of a General Educational Development (GED) and/or readiness for occupational and/or postsecondary education. (Contains 3 footnotes.).

National Advisory Council on Extension and Continuing Education and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report points out that the U.S. is virtually alone among industrialized countries in having no officially recognized body through which a dialog can be sustained on adult education matters. Furthermore, the delivery system is too often prevented from delivering needed services by its near-total dependence on tuition income. Activities of the National Advisory Council speak to these and other national issues, describing public hearings, meetings with concerned officials and representatives, and recommendations for action. The report recommends to the President that the Executive Branch activate its leadership potential in educational planning, policy, and program development for the unserved and underserved adult learner; expand the scope of NIE (National Institute of Education) research activities; and encourage ICA (International Communications Agency) support for adult and continuing education. The Congress is requested to reauthorize Title 1 of the Higher Education Act to improve ways of meeting adult learning needs. Congress, the report emphasizes, should find ways to encourage and support those who are unable to study full-time and who are discriminated against economically. Appendixes include an executive summary and discussion of federal policies for postsecondary continuing education, an analysis of the current federal role in support of such education, and a summary of public hearings on Title 1.
