National Digital Education Extension Team: Bridging the Digital Divide & ECOP Broadband ProgramAction Team Fellow: Rachel Wellborn, Mississippi State University Roadmap Fellow Report: The Broadband Fellow, has been meeting monthly with the leadership team for this effort prior to the monthly large team meeting. Additionally, the Fellow has been meeting with the evaluation committee led by John Greene and the Digital Literacy Toolkit committee. The team is planning evaluation and gathering information for the toolkit. Please see the Connect Extension site here . Experience(s) working with your Catalysts and Key Informants: Rick Klemme has been part of all our meetings and has facilitated connections when needed. He is a valuable connection to resources. Significant Results: ● The digital literacy team has contracted with Anna Kleiner to create a taxonomy of digital literacy resources currently offered for free. The discovery is that there are more than enough to help Extension Educators get started. There are so many in fact a crucial part of this project will be creating "packages" of resources that are ready to use. Anticipated work for the next reporting period (March 1, 2021 - May 31, 2022) ● Continue on the digital literacy resources discovery and then move into "packaging" those resources in a way that agents can readily use them in their programming. Also, we will continue preparing for the face-to-face train-the-trainer event in May. Key Informant Services Reports: Program Design and Educational Technology The Program Design and Education Technology team did not engage with this project team during the second quarter.
