Computer Assisted Instruction involves the use of computers and specialized educational software to tailor curriculum and pace of instruction to meet the needs of the students, allowing them to progress at their own pace. The Adult Center Lab provides a positive learning experience without the pressure of the traditional classroom. The Adult Center Lab was established in the Autumn of 1989 as a community educational facility to help adults develop basic literacy skills as well as basic and advanced skills in reading, writing, math, science and social studies. The primary goal of the Adult Center Lab was to provide a site for adult education. It has progressed beyond that basic goal to encompass the whole spectrum of students from pre-school aged children to adults.
Services are free to the public.
The Adult Center Lab offers a variety of programs to enhance the learning experience. The Literacy Center works co-operatively with the NSU College of Optometry, to enhance their Vision Therapy program. Students who are experiencing reading difficulties have the opportunity to check for Ocular Motor Dysfunction with the Visagragh II System. School age children are provided assistance in basic skills. College students may use test preparation software to aid in passing the Pre-Professional Skills Test, Medical College Admissions Test, Graduate Records Exam, or the Law School Admissions test.
