Adult literacy programs in developing countries are often ineffectual and rather limited outcomes. To improve outcomes, much emphasis has been given to empowering nongovernmental organizations, increasing learner motivation, and reinforcing social benefits. This book summarizes the pertinent cognitive and neuropsychological research using layman terms and attempts to apply it to the acquisition of adult literacy. It presents issues and ideas on designing adult literacy programs that support human memory functions as understood in 2003.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Helen Abadzi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0821354930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780821354933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Bank Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 6.70w x 0.32d","brand":"Helen Abadzi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44120347181311,"sku":"9780821354933","price":19.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5b0aa660-fd70-4e12-a7a3-e77b8463365b.jpg?v=1687413832","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/improving-adult-literacy-outcomes-helen-abadzi-9780821354933","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
