Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

Adult basic education has only in recent years become an integral part of the total educational picture in New Mexico.

Because of its relative newness no studies have been made in New Mexico which have identified the goals and motivations of the adult students who are participating in this program.
