For this competecy I used Google Advanced Search to find a reputable website that fell into the domain of my blog. To find my website I used the keywords "adults AND illiteracy:.edu. Through this search I found the website for National Assessment of Adult Literacy. Their website can be found at http://nces.ed.gov/naal/.
This website is a statistical site that assesses and provides information on the illiteracy rates in the United States. The agency assesses many different types of illiteracy, such as the rates of those that are incarcerated and those that need access to health information. I thought this was a suitable site to add to my blog as it covers not only basic adult illiteracy, but also those factors that others might not realize are incorporated into the illiteracy statistics.
