Preparatory to teacher training, quintessential is enlightenment into factors conducive to efficacious instruction. Given that the majority of the teachers are part time personnel who teach children full time, teachers of adult basic education, after receiving training in components constituting effective teaching of adult basic education, would then be more effective in teaching adult learners. This research project attempted to identify the components constituting effective teaching of adult basic education. Since the ambiance for teaching of adult basic education cannot be disassociated from its history which shaped it nor gleaned without examination of the contemporaneous state of the art, Chapters I and II contain a narration on appropriate topics. Included in Chapter I are discourses on the macrocosm of teaching contrasted with the microcosm of teaching of adult basic education, American history of adult basic education, characteristics of the adult basic education student, and the current operation of adult basic education in the field. In a review of previous contributions identifying the effective teacher of adult basic education, Chapter II contains an elaboration of a theoretical base, empirical verification of competencies, life-coping skills, attitudinal change, importance of the first class, teaching communication skills and math, and methods and techniques, among other subjects. ...
