Hello adult educators!

In the rush before the holidays, NSC released our latest publication on
digital literacy, focusing on how businesses, educational institutions, and
workforce providers are preparing people with *occupational digital
literacy skills *-- that is, the kind of digital skills they need on the
job.

A key concept we highlighted in the report is *"rapid prototyping." *You
may not have heard the term before, but chances are you've been doing
exactly this over the past 10 months (if not longer).

Today we released a new blog post explaining the concept and how it applies
to education and workforce development:

As always, your thoughts and reflections are welcome--

-Amanda
