The NEDP has been cited by the U.S. Department of Education

The NEDP has been cited by the U.S. Department of Education funded “Digital Resilience in the American Workforce: Findings from a National Landscape Scan on Adult Digital Literacy Instruction” (DRAW) project as an innovative program addressing digital literacy skills.

The DRAW goal is to better prepare adult education practitioners who support learners that struggle to fully engage in tasks that demand the use of digital technologies. This struggle is because of the barriers learners face when accessing, developing skills, and using digital technologies. NEDP is highlighted under the high school program section of Integrating Digital literacy into Other Skills Instruction (p. 20) and again in the discussion in Chapter 5: Assessment for Foundational Digital Skills (p.28).

The report, released August 2022, answers the question “What training resources and approaches are most relevant for educators seeking to increase digital literacy and digital resilience for an adult learner population?” Their findings will inform the design of forthcoming professional development for adult educators.
