This project forms the literacy element of a larger project, ʻImproving the quality of teaching and learning in adult literacy and numeracy, 2007–08ʼ, funded by the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS) through the National Research and Development Centre for Adult Literacy and Numeracy (NRDC). The numeracy element was led by a research team at Kingʼs College London, and their research is described in a separate report (Hodgen et al. 2009). From April 2007 to March 2008 the University of Sheffield conducted the literacy research which features in this report, in order to explore the effectiveness of various teaching strategies with adult learners.
