Strategic Directions

The Learner Web community is developing initiatives in the following strategic directions:

• Community collaboration and life pathways. The Minnesota and New York Regions are developing models that use Learner Web to increase the collaborative capacity of communities to help adults and families move out of poverty, start or change careers, enter and succeed in community colleges, attain citizenship, and follow other life pathways.
  
  
• Professional development and tutoring.  Learner Web has the unique capacity to integrate professional development for teachers and tutors with Learning Plan-based support for their ongoing work with individual students.
  
  
• Postsecondary success. Portland State University has pioneered using the Learner Web to help incoming students adapt to the college environment and make more successful placements in writing, math and other courses.
