In five years, nearly 80 percent of all job openings will require more than a high school degree. Adult education provides a significant opportunity to bridge the workforce supply-and-demand gap. @ReElectNydia #COABEontheHill2023 #AdultEdLiteracyWeek #AEFL2023 @NYCCAL @CUNYALP

They are not only leaders of students, but they are leaders for all of us in this work, who are also students. I learned so much about how to make space & invite others into it, how to teach, how to listen, & how to love in a community from these 4 heroes. #AdultEdu #COABE23

Congratulations Ayantu, Mardgrina, Gina, Khom & Eric! We are so proud of you all.
Students as Leaders in a Multi-Level Math Classroom was the best session I've ever seen at #COABE. 4 student leaders from @CUNYALP - Ayantu, Khom, Mardgrina & Gina (w/their teacher @eappleton) spoke about their shared journey in exploring/discovering their own leadership & gifts

Visit our collection of slow reveal graph sequences, organized into science & SS to help teachers bring more math into those subjects & more of those subjects into math (as well as developing a culture of sense-making and inquiry in #adultedu classes). bit.ly/cunyslowreveal
