On Twitter, I can just retweet the latest from adult education's brightest thought leaders and come off looking smart and well read. But on my blog, I've got to quote people or just steal their ideas outright (kidding!). Here are a few folks that I come back to regularly, either reading or retweeting or both. You should make them regular stops or bookmarks, if you haven't already.
David Rosen has long been a resource for adult education strategic thinking. His most recent blog goes over ten technology trends that stand to transform adult education in the US. Rosen's focus on innovation and equity make him a gem in the field, in my estimation.
Meagan Farrell's has been sharing free GED prep resources on her Farrell Ink site for years, and now you can find some highlights of her professional development workshops here. This week, she's going to post five times while at a conference in Virginia. By the way, it looks like Essential Education will be directly benefiting from Meagan's instructional strategies as she helps us develop new online and print material.
Jeff Carter writes about adult education policy, budget ramification, and there's a helpful survey of adult education's occasional appearances in the media. He's got his own angle, and he moves the conversation forward, something we should all be doing. I'm especially glad for his unpacking of the WIA reauthorization, aka WIOA.
