- W298429496 abstract "Page Title: Visual Literacy: A Neglected Component Project No.: 98-3007 Funding: $12.228 Project Director: Eunice N. Askov Phone No.: (814) 863-3777 Agency Address: Institute for the Study of Adult Literacy The Pennsylvania State University 204 Calder Way. Suite 209 University Park. PA 16801-4756 Description: This project addressed State Priority B.2 by adapting a visual literacy model and materials for adults and exploring their impact on ABLE students. The program is built around Scott ODell's novel The Black Pearl, and includes materials and activities designed to help learners visualize the story, to aid comprehension and to support the development of knowledge and thinking skills. Materials include a video based on the novel, prediction prints, an audiocassette of the movie soundtrack, and a teacher's guide with information and activities. The visual literacy model suggests ways in which the novel and the materials can be used. Objectives: 1. Adapt an existing, visually oriented educational model for use with adults. 2. Develop a cuniculum-based assessment to analyze the model. 3. Train ABLE instructors in use of the program. 4. Implement and evaluate the project. 5. Disseminate the project fmdings. Target Audience: A GED reading and a life skills teacher implemented the program with their students. This report will be of interest to program administrators and teachers working with these populations. Product(s) -if applicable: The fmal report includes a description of the visnal literacy model and how it was adapted by the teachers. The report includes a description of the materials and the teacher training, and documents the exploratory evaluation and its results. Method(s) of Evaluation: Changes in general knowledge, general vocabulary, Spanish vocabulary, and attitudes toward fiction and movies during the course of the project were documented. Feedback from the teachers provided assessments of students' comprehension and thinking skill development Students and teachers parficipated in interviews at the end of the project period. Findings: Students showed gains in knowledge of general vocabulary and Spanish vocabulary from the beginning to the end of the project. There was some indication that students held a more positive attitude toward fiction at the end of the project. Teachers and students felt that the materials and activities aided comprehension and thinldng skills development. Both teachers and students were enthusiastic about the program. Conclusions: The model and materials tested in this project are adaptable to GED reading and life skills classes. An experimental study with a control group should be carried out to determine whether the program does indeed develop adult learners' knowledge, skills, and comprehension.
