While reading the booklet, you will also listen to an audio CD that will narrate the booklet. * If you are in Group 2, you will watch a video with non-moving images about colorectal cancer screening tests on an iPad. * If you are in Group 3, you will watch a video with animated images about colorectal cancer screening tests on an iPad. You will complete questionnaires before and after viewing the program that will contain questions about: * Your age and what language you speak * Your math and reading comprehension * Your knowledge of colorectal cancer and colorectal cancer screening * Your thoughts about colorectal cancer screening * Your opinions about this study, and * How well you understand the booklet/video you view as part of this study It will take about 1 hour to complete all the questionnaires.
