Dear Community Members,
Happy National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week, #AEFLWeek! LINCS has exciting news to share with you this week. We’re pleased to announce a brand-new section of LINCS, designed specifically for adult learners! In conjunction with #AEFLWeek, OCTAE is launching the LINCS Learner Center, an online gateway to direct adult learners to high-quality resources related to education, training, and foundational skills.
The LINCS Learner Center compiles resources from many different federal agencies and additional organizations, categorized across seven life goals:
- Learn to Read;
- Learn Math;
- Learn Science;
- Learn English;
- Get Job Skills;
- Become a U.S. Citizen; and
- Find a Program.
Developed to be mobile-friendly, the site brings resources to learners in class, on the go, and at home so they can extend their learning time and accelerate their skills. Learners do not need a password to access the resources. Several resources in the LINCS Learner Center are also available in Spanish.
Share the site with your colleagues and adult learners, and share our Tweets from @LINCS_ED this week to help us spread the word! The site is a beta version, designed to join the national conversation about digital tools for adult learners.To recommend resources to be considered, email info@lincs.ed.gov.
Best regards,
The LINCS Team
