CELL Additional Practices

As you move through each practice exercise, you will see that you are asked to practice, evaluate your knowledge based on the practice, and then reflect on what you learned. As you may remember from training, these are key components of the Participatory Adult Learning Strategy or PALS, a research-based approach to teaching adult learners. The main ingredient of PALS is active learner involvement that promotes learner understanding and use of the knowledge and practice. The following practices can be used to provide follow up support to classroom teachers and home visitors. This is an effort to increase their understanding and use of CELL interest-based everyday literacy learning practices.
