The 12 articles are written by practitioners for practitioners and describe programs being provided by public schools, community colleges, libraries, volunteer agencies, and a rehabilitation facility in rural, suburban, and urban settings. Suggestions are offered as to what software programs have been effective with students, how cooperative programs between agencies are being implemented, how computer-assisted instruction supplements volunteer tutorial programs, and how rural areas with limited funding can use technology.
