Many thanks Tom.
<div class="">Another scholarly synthesis of the history of Adult Literacy Education in USA.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Your synthesis reinforces the fact that, e<span style="text-indent: 36pt;" class="">ducation, as is true of any domain of intellectual inquiry, is shaped by history, research, and politics. Your piece has helped me understand how education evolves,
and how it is influenced by academic trends, cultural forces, and individual participants. This is especially true when it comes to the issue of identifying the “best” pedagogy for teaching literacy.</span></div>

<p class="">Greetings All! Monday, May 31, is Memorial Day when we honor those Americans who have fought to bring liberty to millions of people who have been oppressed or even enslaved around the world. And we remember and honor the thousands of adult literacy
teachers who lit the lamp of literacy for military service members in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Iraq War, and the 911 terrorist attack in New York City.</p>
<p class=""> Historical notes about all these wars are available in a report entitled “Fighting Illiteracy in Times of War”, available online at</p>
