ADED 595 - Seminar in Adult Basic Education for Urban Teachers

3 hours.
3 Credits

The primary concern of this course is the development of relevant perceptions for educating urban adult students. Teachers will be provided the opportunity to become aware of the typical daily experiences of an inner-city adult through field trips, walking tours, and visits to homes and Adult Basic Education centers. Attempts will be made to discover new ways of educating the inner-city adult to manipulate his/her experiences advantageously. These perceptions and experiences will be utilized in the development of educational programs for the illiterate and semi-illiterate adult.
