A five-week intensive Literacy-Homecraft course (residential) for 13 women was conducted to accelerate learning and propel learners toward satisfactory achievement. At the end of the course, 10 of the 13 were reading graded material with reasonable accuracy, fluency and comprehension. Two were making fair progress, but probably will not retain literacy without joining continuation classes. One did not learn, but her vision was defective. After 3-1/2 months, students were again tested. Only one had joined a local literacy class in the interim. Eight of the 10 who could be tested achieved 80%-95% accuracy in the comprehension test (Evaluation Unit - National Literacy Pilot Project) for reading. The two who had been slowest in first testing had lost considerably and achieved only 23%-33%. All had lost in writing skills during the interim. A certain amount of homecraft practices taught in the classroom were transferred over to the home, but it was difficult to assess how much. (Author/CK)
