Abstract:
In this document, the authors provide sources of research and professional wisdom that are useful to the design of evidence-based instruction. Their annotated bibliography is divided into seven subsections that focus on reading, writing, math and numeracy, English as a second language, GED, adult learning theory, and technology. Each section presents adult education sources and then additional resources based on K–12 research, instruction, and professional development resources.
