Chapter 1 reports findings of an online survey of 113 adult literacy practitioners actively using the Internet, including difficulties encountered in learning to use the Internet; training or supports that helped; Internet features used by priority; and how the Internet was used for adult education activities. Chapter 2 presents similar findings from a companion research project that used focus groups with 40 practitioners that explored the following topics: motivation for nonusers to use the Internet; new and experienced users' motivation; difficulties encountered; training or supports that helped; and Internet resources/features/sites practitioners felt were useful. Chapter 3 is a summary of results of from focus groups with 21 learners examining how adult literacy/basic education/English for speakers of other languages (ESOL) students in Northern and Southern California and Southern Ohio use the Internet. Findings are grouped as follows: where students get access; why students without access want it; why student Internet users go online; difficulties students encounter; training or supports that help; and Internet resources/sites/features students would like to find. Chapter 4 is a staff development model designed to help adult literacy/basic education/ESOL practitioners with little or no experience using the Internet or computers. Chapter 5 lists literacy World Wide Web directories and search tools. Chapter 6 is a collection of 53 Website reviews.
