| Abstract: | Examples of mini-projects focused on community and school connections are shared, along with outcomes related to digital skill development, family engagement, and learner confidence in supporting their children's education. In an era where digital literacy is increasingly essential for success in work, family, and community life, many adult English language learners (ELLs) confront a digital divide. Purpose of Digital Literacy in Family Learning Adult learners who feel confident in both their English language and digital literacy skills will email a child's teacher requesting a parent-teacher conference. "English language skills and digital literacy are essential for obtaining and keeping a family sustaining job, supporting children at school, participating in community life, obtaining community services, and accessing further education and training" (Harris, 2015). |
