The International Review Programme comprises six literature reviews which were undertaken by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) between September 2009 and May 2010 for CfBT, with the purpose of informing continuous improvements in the teaching and learning of adult basic skills. The programme looks at how adults' basic skills can be improved through family, workbased and flexible learning. It also looks at two specific components within basic skills: financial capability and employability skills, and how the teaching and learning of these specific components can be improved. The impacts of developing basic skills are considered for individuals and employers as well as for society as a whole. Table of contents: * Overview of findings: approaches and impacts * The impact of adult basic skills development on individuals and employers * The development of basic financial capability skills for adults * The development of employability skills for adults * Adult basic skills development and family learning * Using flexible learning as a medium to develop adult basic skills * The development of basic skills through work-based learning * Conclusion: implications for policy and practice * Appendix 1: On policy * Appendix 2: Methodology for the review * Appendix 3: Impacts - about the research evidence * Appendix 4: Financial capability - about the research evidence * Appendix 5: Employability - about the research evidence * Appendix 6: Adult basic skills and family learning - about the research evidence * Appendix 7: Flexible learning - about the research evidence * Appendix 8: Work-based learning - about the research evidence.

This volume revisits, problematizes, and expands the meaning of quality in the context of adult basic education. Covering a wide range of relevant topics, it includes contributors from the realms of both policy and practice and encompasses both the major instructional areas-reading, writing, and mathematics-as well as larger issues of literacy, learning, and adulthood. Each chapter focuses on what improving quality in the field might look like through the particular lens of the author's work. As a whole, the broad scope of topics and ideas addressed will raise the level of discussion, knowledge, and practice regarding quality in adult basic education. In this book, the term adult basic education refers to the broad range of services for adults who wish to improve their literacy and language skills, including beginning and intermediate writing, writing and numeracy, preGED, GED/Adult Secondary Education, and ESL instruction that takes place in a range of contexts including schools, community-based programs, and workplace development programs. The volume is organized around three themes: *Accountability, Standards, and the Use of Documentation and Research; *Program Structures and Instruction; and *Rethinking Our Assumptions and Concepts. Coming at a time of increasing pressure to standardize, to be accountable, and to improve outcomes, and when calls for evidence-based practice are fueling stakeholders' interest in the relationship between research and practice at all levels of the system, Toward Defining and Improving Quality in Adult Basic Education is particularly timely for scholars, graduate students, and professionals in the field of adult basic education.

The strategy to improve basic literacy and numeracy skills has helped over 5.7 million adults achieve a qualification or other specified learning aim at a cost of £5 billion. The Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills and the Learning and Skills Council exceeded targets for the number of adults reaching basic literacy and numeracy standards (750,000 by 2004 and 1.5 million by 2007). The Department is also on course to meet the 2010 target of improving the basic skills of 2.25 million adults. Less progress has been made in strengthening numeracy skills compared with literacy skills. Numeracy courses are less popular than literacy courses with fewer people participating in them and achieving qualifications. Many people with literacy and numeracy needs come into contact with different parts of government, such as Jobcentre Plus. The Department could make better use of these contacts to engage people on Skills for Life courses. Participation and achievement levels for people with a literacy or numeracy need vary across the country. Based on the 2003 survey of need, the North East and North West have the best rates of achievement for both literacy and numeracy. In contrast, the East of England and East Midlands have the lowest rates of achievement for literacy and East of England and London, the lowest rates of achievement for numeracy. Between 2001 and 2004, spending on English for Speakers of Other Languages courses tripled to almost £300 million a year. However, demand for these courses has exceeded supply, particularly in London. Although significant progress is being made against targets, until the Department updates its assessment of literacy and numeracy needs, the scale of the challenge regarding adult skill levels will remain unclear.

England's Learning and Skills Development Agency welcomes the introduction of a coherent national funding and delivery strategy for adult literacy, numeracy, and English for speakers of other languages (ESOL). The agency believes that the strategy should incorporate the lessons of previous literacy and numeracy initiatives and build on examples of good practice across the post-16 sector, including work-based, community-based, and further education college-based provision. It is also the agency's hope that literacy and numeracy students be approached as adult customers and that funding streams for basic skills be harmonized. The agency has 96 specific recommendations concerning the following areas: (1) challenges facing literacy, numeracy, and ESOL education; (2) motivation and participation; (3) infrastructure for delivery; (4) new targets and resources; (5) priority groups; (6) building a firm foundation (management, teaching staff, initial assessment, accommodation); (6) management of learning (learning programs, certification for bite-sized achievement, progression); (7) national tests; (8) national curriculum; (9) key skills and basic skills; (10) new teaching materials; (11) inspection; (11) pathfinder projects; (12) flexible learning and information and communications technology; and (13) next steps. (Specific agency recommendations regarding staff training, priority groups, and non-schedule 2 evaluations are appended. Twenty-five endnotes are included.) (MN)
