Adult Reading Components Study

John Strucker just paid a visit to Richmond on April 19 and 20. In one of his excellent seminars, he discussed a new research project that is now an interactive website for teachers. It is the Adult Reading Components Study (ARCS). In this study, nearly 1000 adult learners were assessed in 5 areas of reading, and the resulting scores were grouped into 11 basic profiles, or groups. You can take the mini-course to learn more about reading, or you can download the quick, free assessments, post your student's scores in "Match a Profile" and receive instructional information instantly for your student's profile. It is fascinating and will help us understand our students better, to meet their needs. Try it out.
