Dear All: Wow,what informative answers. Here's another query: What would help you to help more people attain GED's? Maybe--more teachers in your programs? More students? Credentialed teachers? Better teaching materials? Higher pay? I'm kind of taking the position that getting the GED is a reasonable goal to achieve. Thanks for any of your thoughts. I'm trying to learn from people in the field what would make a difference, since it is you who are doing the teaching. I used to teach, am now on the sidelines, doing some writing for a local foundation, and trying to understand what is really going on. Andrea Wilder Cambridge, MA
