CHHCS News Alert -- May 12, 2005

Visual Impairment in U.S. Children:
Visual impairment limits the range and kinds of information to which a child is exposed, and visually impaired children are at risk of developmental disabilities, making it important that ocular conditions be found and treated even before a child begins school, according to a report on the prevalence of childhood visual impairment in the May 6 issue of Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

I am looking for information/strategies on how adults learn. Ways to be creative and effective in terms of how a adult learns and processes information.

Thanks,
