This finding put literacy issues squarely on the policy agenda and raised important new questions. Key among them was whether the profiles of literacy skills of adults in these two North American countries were any different from those of other industrialized nations. Encouraging action on the literacy policy front in Canada and in the US was seen as dependant, at least in part, on an answer to this question. 1, record 14, English, - literacy%20policy

The next question to ask yourself is how do you learn? If lectures put you to sleep, you most likely don’t learn well by listening, which means an instructor-led class is probably not the best choice. If, on the other hand, you can’t make yourself study on your own, the structure of an instructor-led class might be exactly what you need. If you learn better by reading a book, either self-study or online training might be the best choice. 1, record 15, English, - instructor%2Dled%20class
