Minnesota -- once again leading the way! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Tom Cytron-Hysom <thysom@gmail.com> Date: Wed, Jan 13, 2021 at 12:39 PM You may be interested in new resources just released by Northstar Digital Literacy <https://www.digitalliteracyassessment.org/>, a program of Literacy Minnesota <https://www.literacymn.org/>. *Supporting K-12 Distance Learning* <https://www.digitalliteracyassessment.org/go/?module=30> is designed to assess the ability of parents/caregivers to assist their children to participate successfully in distance learning. We also released *curricula* <https://assets.digitalliteracyassessment.org/static/curriculum/distance-learning-support/Northstar%20Curriculum%20-%20Supporting%20K-12%20Distance%20Learning.zip> to accompany this module*.* Like all of our curricula, this is designed for classroom use but can also be used at a distance. During this time when so many children are struggling with distance learning, we hope this will be a valuable resource to help caregivers learn how they can support and assist their children with online learning. Digital navigators may also find this valuable in their work. These resources were made possible through CARES funding administered through the State of Minnesota Library Services. -- *Amanda Bergson-Shilcock*, Senior Fellow *National Skills Coalition* Pronouns: she/her/hers 1250 Connecticut Avenue NW, Suite 200, Washington DC 20036 215-285-2860 (mobile) *www.nationalskillscoalition.org* <http://www.nationalskillscoalition.org/>
