How will YOU spread the word?

Blog for Adult Education and Family Literacy
 
Calling all bloggers to blog about adult education and family literacy—how does literacy impact key areas that concern you? Immigration or integration? Health or the environment? Jobs or economic reform? Tell the world about it on your blog during September 13 – 19, 2010 and we'll list your blog here among the featured blog articles of the week.
 
#AEFLWeek Twitter Fact Fest
 
Tweet facts about adult education and family literacy. Raise awareness of adult education and family literacy among your followers (and among their followers if they retweet the facts!). See the Twitter campaign page for a selection of facts to tweet. Share what you do to raise awareness.

 

The Association of Adult Literacy Professional Developers (AALPD) is a national group for professional developers in adult literacy. An affiliate of COABE (Commission on Adult Basic Education), AALPD meets at COABE Conferences and other professional development events. Join AALPD by completing the on-line membership form. Membership registration is free and ongoing.

Learn about the AALPD Priorities that are guiding AALPD and see the AALPD Issue Papers that detail AALPD’s positions on professional development issues. Identify ways you can become involved.

Purpose

The purposes of AALPD are:

  • To build a network of professional developers to share information and communicate fresh ideas and promising practices;
  • To provide professional development for professional developers based on their needs and interest;
  • To contribute the voice of the field to shaping policy initiatives.

AALPD uses this website, an Adult Literacy Professional Development Discussion List, and its conference presentations to create a network of individuals interested in professional development in adult literacy.
