As I looked over the crowd on November 18th, I realized once again, just how many creative, dedicated individuals there are working as adult educators in our region. I'm sure those of you who are reading this can also think of someone you know - teacher, volunteer, administrator, or contributor, who deserves to be recognized. To all of those neat Northwest Adult Education individuals who attended November 18th. Students and interested faculty exchange information through presentations and workshop activities. One unique feature about ALOC Conferences is that adult learners plan and operate these gatherings.
Faculty serve as mentors in the process.
Dr. Gustafson is a parent educator at Grant Medical Center. Two ABLE educators, Peggy Ketner and Martha Blowers, from Licking County JVS Adult Resource Center share information about their programs. Jane Williams from the Newark Campus of OSU and Central Ohio Technical College discussed the Pathways program which serves welfare students with children. Or better yet, copy and distribute the form at a staff meeting or regional workshop. Many of our members are truly deserving of an award for their outstanding work and contributions to the field of adult education.
