Reading Instruction for Adult Groups with Varied Reading Levels.

Boraks, Nancy

Adult Literacy and Basic Education, v13 n3 p136-45 1989

The multitext approach to teaching reading to diverse groups of adults involves the teacher in selecting a topic and several books. Students follow a seven-step process that actively engages them in defining their knowledge of the topic and taking responsibility for choosing a text and reading to answer questions about the topic.
