George,

i think your list is a start and you are good to put it into the discussion.

Do any of these studies say what actually happens in the classroom?  READING 
IS CENTRAL.  It's why we are all here!!!  I think if we can't figure out the 
best methods to use in teaching adults to read and write, we had best be in 
another business.   Methods have to be described, validated, measured, and 
shown to be reliable!!!  This should be the center of our discussion!!!  Do 
we have studies which test out methods?  Do we have teachers, or 
organizations who have done their own research?
