Instructional Paradigms
Hal Beder, Rutgers University
(Meeting of the Minds Symposium)

The study examines three major paradigms for adult literacy, basic skills literacy, emancipatory literacy and functional literacy, and compares them in respect to how they define quality instruction. Because there are significant differences in the desired outcomes of each, each paradigm would require different standards for accountability if instructional objectives were to be appropriately aligned with outcome measurement.
