About This Publication
Published by NIACE in partnership with the National Research and Development Centre for Adult Literacy and Numeracy (NRDC), this is a set of eight good practice guides covering key areas of adult education, arising from five Effective Practice Studies carried out by NRDC from 2003 to 2007.
The series looks critically at how emerging and published research can inform the development of teaching and learning strategies for adults. It is designed to support practitioners working in a variety of settings.
Each guide in the series aims to update teachers on research and to encourage them to reflect on their practice. They are intended to inspire teachers to try ideas and approaches which research suggests are effective. Principles of good practice are illustrated by clear and relevant case studies from current research. All examples are highly relevant to the classroom. Pointers to further reading are provided.
Books in the series can also be purchased separately at £10.95 each by clicking on the following links:
