This is a reminder about an webcast scheduled for Friday, January 6, from 10:30 - noon. The results of the 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy have finally been released -- but what do the figures really tell us and how do we tell our communities and the news media what the numbers mean in terms of adult learners and adult basic education?  Join ProLiteracy Worldwide's Marsha Tait, senior vice president of public affairs and Rochelle Cassella, director of marketing and corporate  communications for a presentation and question and answer session on analyzing and interpreting the 2003 NAAL.   This webcast is sponsored by California Library Literacy Services, in cooperation with ProLiteracy Worldwide.

Friday, January 6, 10:30 am - Noon  - FREE

About the Technology:  A webcast is where the presenters are in a studio broadcasting live over the Internet, so you don't have to  
travel - you can participate at your desktop computer.   Some  
libraries or literacy programs may want to project the webcast on a screen in a conference  room, so that several participants can watch together.
