Adult Literacy XPRIZE Semi-Finalist Panel Discussion

Learn about cutting-edge technology for adult learners! On Monday, April 16, at 1:00pm ET, the LINCS Community’s Integrating Technology and Program Management groups will hold a panel discussion with representatives from the Adult Literacy XPRIZE semi-finalist teams.

There is a lot to talk about! The Adult Literacy XPRIZE apps are currently being field-tested with adult learners in Dallas, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. Instructors, instructional and administrative leaders, researchers, professional development trainers, curriculum developers and others can join the conversation. Learn about the apps and see how they can be used in adult education programs. Panelists will answer questions from LINCS Community members and discuss how their apps are being used, why and for whom they were designed, and their cost.

Whether you already know about the Adult Literacy XPRIZE competition, or are hearing about it for the first time, be sure to join the LINCS Community to participate in this exciting discussion!

Thanks,

The LINCS Team
