She has given permission to post it here. You will see how she is mastering the Standard--Use Information and Communications Technology with all the components of performance. We know that one of the best things about the EFF Framework is that it applies to all of us, and Deborah, a well-educated woman, is proof positive. Here is what she said: *Participating on the NIFL discussions have led to so many other things. Slowly, I began to understand that I have a professional voice worth listening to. The lists built my confidence. In the past year alone, I presented at a national conference, was invited to World Education for a health literacy "summit," found myself the guest, twice, with all expenses paid, to national meetings with doctors and researchers, and was hired by another county as a consultant. All of these experiences began in a list conversation. (Use computers and other electronic tools to acquire, process and manage information; Use the Internet to explore topics and gather information) The agency I lead bears no resemblance to the organization before my participation on the listservs. We have placed a priority on using technology for our learners' benefit. (Use electronic tools to learn and practice skills) I am very proud that what we do here now represents an innovative, learner-led, quality program. * Thanks, Debbie, for permission to post this important message. All the Best, Meta Potts, Moderator 4-eff listserv FOCUS on Literacy Glen Allen, Virginia
