Reading and Learning: A Handbook for Adults

Will my reading improve? What will help me learn? How can I remember what I've read? What causes reading difficulties? This handbook uses illustrations and easy-to-read text to explain how adults with low-literacy skills can become better readers. Adults will also learn about the factors that contribute to reading difficulties. The handbook concludes with suggestions for becoming an effective learner and a fluent reader. This resource can be given to students when they join an adult basic education program, or recommended to them as a valuable resource.
