St. Clair, Ralf
Perspectives: The New York Journal of Adult Learning, v2 n1 p49-61 2003-2004
A survey received 143 responses (35%) from adult education/English as a second language directors; 16 were interviewed. Only 12% rarely read research; 84% found it interesting and 85% believed it relevant to practice; 66% had changed practice due to research-based information. Educational level had no significant influence, but training or experience in conducting research was significant. (Contains 10 references.) (SK)
