THESE PROBLEMS INCLUDE A HIGHLY TRANSITORY AND DIVERSE STUDENT POPULATION, LACK OF MOTIVATION OF STUDENTS UPON ENTRY INTO CORRECTIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS, AND FAILURE OF STUDENTS IN MAKING THE TRANSITION BACK TO SOCIETY. THE FIRST PROBLEM CAN BE OVERCOME THROUGH SPECIFIC EDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENT, VARIABLE PROGRAMMING, INDIVIDUALIZED INSTRUCTION, AND PROGRAMMED LEARNING.
