conclusion for illiteracy 8-10 lines
Answers
Answer:It is clear that a significant proportion of U.S. adults do not have the high level of literacy in both print and digital media required for negotiating many aspects of life in the 21st century. As noted in Chapter 1, more than 90 million U.S. adults are estimated to lack adequate literacy (Kutner et al., 2007); only 38 percent of U.S. twelfth graders are at or above proficient in reading (National Assessment of Educational Progress, 2008); and more than 50 percent of recent 250,000 community college student enrollees were referred to at least one developmental (remedial) education course to remediate weak skills during their college tenure (Bailey, Jeong, and Cho, 2010), with about one-third of them referred specifically for reading. Furthermore, the estimated 2.6 million adults enrolled in federally funded programs in 2005 showed variable progress in their literacy skills, and their skill gains were insufficient to achieve functional literacy (Tamassia et al., 2007).
