Abstract
Riessman, a national authority in educating undereducated adults, discusses some of the problems he sees in our present educational system. He suggests providing an accelerated career-oriented education for mature adults. Deficiencies in teacher training and on-the-job training programs are discussed. He believes that a great pitfall of a teacher is that he's not able to make contact via the curriculum to the learner, and is thus unable to reach the learner. After reading this, how do you rate yourself as an educator?
