New Report on Digital Resilience in the American Workforce
The Jobs for the Future (JFF) and World Education with support from The Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education (OCTAE) just published their report Digital Resilience in the American Workforce (DRAW): Findings from a National Landscape Scan on Adult Digital Literacy Instruction last month. The findings answer this primary research question: “What training resources and approaches are most relevant for educators seeking to increase digital literacy and digital resilience?” Report findings are organized into six thematic sections which include:
- Defining Digital Skills and Resilience
- Advancing Digital Inclusion and Equity
- Instructional Approaches and Practices
- Digital Skill Content and Curriculum
- Assessing and Validating Digital Skills
- Professional Development for Practitioners
Future news items will include a brief overview of each thematic section. Blog sites were developed by the DRAW team highlighting various aspects of scan findings.
The DRAW team developed a blog series to reach a broader audience. Blog Links are featured below:
- Putting Digital Literacy and Digital Resilience into Frame
- The Digital Skills Library
- Selecting an Assessment for Digital Literacy
- Challenges and Solutions for Inclusive and Equitable Digital Access
