Hi Sandra,
Thanks for your e-mail!
The TABE ESL test is the TABE CLAS-E. A description of it can be found at
http://www.ctb.com/products/product_summary.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=140847

74395292718&bmUID=1241722470142> &bmUID=1241722470142.
I am in touch with CTB McGraw-Hill about this test. My question in this
phase of my own research is specifically about the Terra Nova 2nd and 3rd
Ed.
Also, is anybody familiar with the GAIN (see
http://www.wonderlic.com/education-solutions/adult-basic-education.aspx)?
If so, I'd also greatly appreciate your observations / comments.
Thank you so much!
Michael

Michael-I don't know a whole lot about it but TABE is or has come out with
an ESL test. I know they were testing it in the last couple of years, but I
haven't heard the results. Does anyone know about this test?

Greetings to all,
Has anyone used CTB McGraw-Hill's Terra Nova (2nd and 3rd Editions) with
adult ESL learners, and if so, what, if any, observations might you have to
share? I know the test is designed for Grades 1-12 learners. The CBO I
used to work at administered the first edition of this test to prospective
GED students, some of whom were adults. The CBO currently uses TABE.
Thank you for any insights you may have!
Michael
