The Five Connections

Welcome to GED 2002
Making New Connections - The Sequel
Language Arts, Writing - EAE for Today

Welcome to Making New Connections - The Sequel Language Arts, Writing. Throughout this web-based training, you will have an opportunity to view video clips from an actual GED class at Indian River Community College in Ft. Pierce, Florida. These 15-30 second video clips will provide you with a brief look at different strategies in action. One word of caution - if you are using a dial-up modem, expect that it will take a minute or so to download the video clip.

Welcome from Dr. Lucy Guglielmino

In the workforce and our communities, adults are expected to be able to write so that others can read and understand what is being communicated. This is the focus of our language - to be effective communicators.

With the implementation of the GED 2002 Series Tests, effective communication through the written word and the understanding of the written word will be a major focus of the Language Arts Tests.

GED 2002 - Making New Connections provided basic information about GED students, the test, GED programs, basic teaching strategies and special topics on ESOL, Learning Disabilities and Technology.  Making New Connections - The Sequel is a three- part training that will focus on specific teaching strategies for the GED 2002 Series Tests.  This sequel can be used independent of any other training.

This program was developed by Dr. Lucy M. Guglielmino, Florida Atlantic University, through an Adult Education State Leadership Grant from the Florida Department of Education, Division of Community Colleges and Workforce Education. Content development by Susan Pittman and Bonnie Vondracek. Web Design and editing by Dr. Debra L. Hargrove and Dr. Rochelle Kenyon.
