From the Oak Cliff Advocate, a story about a literacy tutor helping to make a difference in Texas. I LOVE stories like these!!
The Open Doors program in Winnipeg Canada is helping to change the learning experience for adults who can not read. Here is the whole story from The Times website.
Ok, this is so cool. I found out about this on the BBC website. Well known personalities in South Wales were approached to write short novels that are aimed at new adult readers. What I want to know is when are we going to do this in the US?
Health literacy is a two-way street. Agreed Agreed! Check out this blog post from the timesunion.com. It is written by a doctor who seems to understand that improving health literacy comes from both sides. I really enjoyed the "Mom's RX" list at the bottom, especially the advice: "Talk to your doctor when you are fully dressed, not while sitting in a hospital gown."
Take this test which is an excerpt from he Newest Vital Sign written by Dr. Barry Weiss. This blog post written by Joe Rojas-Burke challenges: "Are you health literate?"
This video of an adult literacy student named Edward is so awesome! Brings a tear to my eye!
