Abstract:
Do you have a pressing issue that you wish researchers would investigate? Do you wish researchers would publicize their findings in language that everyone can understand? If so, you may be interested in learning about federally funded partnerships between practitioners and researchers. This session will provide examples of practitioners and researchers working together to address key issues in adult basic education and literacy. Practitioners and researchers often have similar questions about adult basic education services, yet they often do not have an opportunity to collaborate as equal partners in exploring these questions. Panelists in this session will explain how practitioners and researchers can work together to address relevant issues in our field. Audience members will have a chance to share their experiences working in collaborations and discuss ways to address challenges, frustrations, and obstacles that often occur during collaborative endeavors.

Abstract:
Open Educational Resources (OER) continue to explode and, fortunately, in the direction of Adult Education! In this session, participants will review OER concepts and their related five licensing definitions, explore OER online that can be effectively used in Adult Ed, identify repositories for OER content, develop search techniques, evaluate lesson plans to meet open classroom requirements, and contribute to the process of posting and remixing OER through OER Commons. OER is for all educators, no matter what their role or field of interest. Everyone is invited to participate and everyone, thereafter, is invited to share OER for and by adult learners. Looking for a publishing niche? That’s it!

The nation has a new Perkins Career and Technical Education (CTE) law. Did you know that Adult Education leaders have important roles to play in Perkins V CTE implementation? Come and learn about them and unmask your collaboration potential! The session will include a presentation of Perkins V opportunities and an expert panel of national and state Adult Education leaders with CTE experience. Adult Education/CTE/WIOA policy collaboration is important to facilitate joint state Perkins/WIOA planning, braiding funding streams to best serve low-income students, and opportunities to promote co-enrollment and Integrated Education and Training (IET).
