[ProfessionalDevelopment 1864] Re: GED and college Transition?Appelt, Ken kappelt at tamu.eduThu Jan 10 15:49:16 EST 2008
Melinda, In April of 2007 I wrote an article for the Texas AE journal about transitioning GED completers to post-secondary. You can find "After the GED: Helping Students Take the Next Step" on the TCALL Web site at http://www-tcall.tamu.edu/newsletr/apr07/apr07k.html I noted statistics from several research studies and reviewed resources for teachers and administrators. You may find some useful leads in the resources at the end of the article.

I am looking for overall numbers (general) of students who graduate with their GED and go to college. I have a student who is in college and is doing a paper on GED grads who go on to college and I can't find that article... I have been watching the prof. dialogue and thought I ask the world. Thank you very much- Do you have a web site? Melinda R. Maiterth, M.A.T.

This section of the wiki contains an area where students can try out their online skills by posting their comments in a forum or by reviewing computer programs (as part of an online survey). The page has directions for how to add and edit text, so that learners and/or their teachers can become familiar with the process of participating in a wiki. The forum has yet to be used, so your learners could be the first! It would be great for a class working on their computer skills. The Learner Perspective section also has links to publications that contain student writing and links to some mp3s (which have learners telling their own stories). This section also has a place where programs or publications can post calls for student writing (such as the recent call for Women's Perspectives #3 (2008) / Women & Money). The address for this section is http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Learner_Perspectives.
