A Computer-Based System of Reading Instruction for Adult Non-Readers

Abstract
The Basic Skills Learning System is a modularized network of computer assisted tutorials, drills, tests, printed materials, and videotaped presentations directed at improving the basic reading, math and language skills of adults who have mastered these skills at a level above third grade but below the eighth. Advanced computer technology enables the system to locate and apply instructional methods which will enhance learning motivation, reinforce increased student achievement in the basic skills and develop an improved model of management for student learning.
