Abstract	This framework articulates the knowledge and skills adult English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) learners need in order to communicate effectively and confidently in English so that they can meet their needs, advocate for themselves, their families and their communities, and participate more fully in U.S. society. The content outlined in this document is meant for all levels and all learners, from beginning to advanced. It applies to various program contexts including general ESOL, ESOL literacy, workplace education, family literacy, corrections, or those that transition students to higher education, vocational training and/or employment. The core concept of the ESOL Framework recognizes two critical dimensions of adult education. First, it focuses on skills, not content; secondly, it acknowledges that adults are developing their skills in order to use them in specific contexts. Appendices include: (1) ESOL Framework Glossary; (2) Charts of the Listening, Speaking Reading and Writing Strands and Standards, by Levels; (3) Teacher Vignettes; (4) Student Performance Level (SPL) Descriptors for Listening Comprehension, Oral Communication, and Reading and Writing; (5) Internet Resources; (6) Equipped for the Future; and (7) Massachusetts ABE Curriculum Frameworks Strands. (Contains 9 footnotes.) (ERIC).
