Led by the University of New Brunswick's College of Extended Learning, the Adult Learning Knowledge Centre is a consortium of educational and community-based organizations enabling a broad network of adult learning specialists active in the research, practice, delivery and assessment of adult learning programs to serve as a national centre of expertise and action on adult learning.
Audrey Penner, Director, Adult Education, Learner Support and Applied Research at the college presented a progress report to the consortium on the college's Reading Research III project. Funded through the Canadian Council on Learning, Reading Research III examines the comparative value of different reading interventions for adult learners preparing to write their GED examinations. The seven-month study, which includes approximately 150 learners in Adult Education centres across PEI, will provide valuable information on the relative merits of different reading interventions to determine which, or in which combination, they may help students as they prepare for their GEDs.
