Abstract | The purpose of the study is to describe the status of literacy training programs in the military services during the summer of 1971 and develop suggestions for more effective training. A prologue provides information on the scope of the general literacy problem. Data were obtained through questionnaires, interviews, record search, and observations and formed the basis for a comparative description of the remedial reading programs of each of the services organized around the following major aspects of literacy training: (1) official and operational objectives, (2) entry level characteristics of trainees, (3) instructional subsystems, and (4) organization and evaluation of training. The report indicated wide diversity in teaching methods and in effectiveness of the various literacy programs. Suggested procedures for followup evaluation are included. (Author/MW) |
