The Adult Education Teacher Inquiry Projects were supported through
funds taken from Section 353 "Special Projects/Professional Development"
of the National Literacy Act of 1991. Dr. James Barton, Assistant Professor,
Education Department, University of RI, assisted the project as advisor
and by providing technical assistance.
New projects were begun in March, 1997. Reports on those projects will
appear in the summer of 1997.
