AGENCY: Overview Information Literacy Information and Communication System Regional Professional Development Centers Program Notice inviting applications for new awards using fiscal year (FY) 2010 funds for FY 2011.

Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: August 1, 2011. Full Text of Announcement I. Funding Opportunity Description srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Purpose of Program: The Literacy Information and Communication System (LINCS) Regional Professional Development Centers (RPDCs) program is authorized under title II of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA) (20 U.S.C. 9253(2)(H)), the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act (AEFLA). Under section 243 of the AEFLA, the Secretary is authorized to establish and carry out a program of national leadership activities to enhance the quality of adult education and literacy programs nationwide. Through the LINCS RPDC grants funded under this competition, we intend to support evidenced-based virtual or in-person adult education professional development (AEPD) activities in order to assist educators who provide adult education services 1 or adult education instruction 2 to adult learners (adult educators). In addition, the LINCS RPDC 1 Adult education services (e.g., career counseling, transportation counseling, education counseling) are provided to adult learners by educators who may include staff of eligible providers identified in section 203(5) of the AEFLA, as well as State staff responsible for the implementation of adult education programs. 2 Adult education instruction (e.g., instruction in basic literacy, mathematics, and English language skills) is provided to adult learners by educators who may include adult education teachers and other instructional personnel of eligible providers identified in section 203(5) of the AEFLA. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:59 Jun 29, 2011 Jkt 223001 grants will enhance the quality of adult education and literacy nationwide by disseminating information to each eligible agency responsible for administering or supervising policy for adult education and literacy programs under section 203(4) of the AEFLA 3 (eligible agency), and to adult education and related organizations within each State and outlying area. Background: President Obama is committed to ensuring that America will once again lead the world in college completion by 2020. To help achieve this goal, the Department supports States to improve the effectiveness of teachers and school leaders, strengthen the use of data to improve instruction, provide high-quality instruction based on rigorous college- and career-ready standards, and measure students’ mastery of standards using high-quality assessments aligned with those standards. Improving the education and literacy of the adult learner population is an important component in attaining the President’s goal. Improving adult literacy hinges on the dissemination and effective delivery of high-quality, evidence-based AEPD. For the past 16 years, LINCS Regional Resource Centers (RRCs) have been supported by funding under section 242 of the AEFLA. The LINCS network provides information on a wide variety of literacy-related topics and resources 4 to assist adult educators in providing adult education services. As part of the LINCS network, the Department currently funds three LINCS RRCs, which collaborate with adult education and related organizations to disseminate high-quality literacy education resources (e.g., online materials) to adult educators, as well as to provide virtual and in-person AEPD and technical assistance to adult educators. The current RRCs provide training and workshops for adult educators using evidenced-based materials and assist adult educators in 3 Section 203(4) of the AEFLA defines the term ‘‘eligible agency’’ as ‘‘the sole entity or agency in a State or an outlying area responsible for administering or supervising policy for adult education and literacy in the State or outlying area, respectively, consistent with the law of the State or outlying area, respectively.’’ 4 The LINCS network provides a centralized point of access to information about adult literacy and an infrastructure to facilitate communication for adult educators (see https://lincs.ed.gov/). The components of the LINCS network, coordinated by the Department, currently include (1) A resource collection of research- and evidence-based resources and online discussion lists on topics such as reading, mathematics, English as a second language, transitions to postsecondary education, and workforce preparation (the Resource Collection); (2) a technology database and Web site infrastructure provided under a technical services contract; and (3) a regional system of three LINCS Regional Resource Centers. PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 using online adult education instructional resources available through the LINCS network. The project period for the three LINCs RRCs will end on September 30, 2011. Through this competition, the Department plans to award up to four cooperative agreements to entities to serve as LINCS RPDCs.5 As outlined in the Demonstrate capacity requirement in this notice, the RPDCs to be supported through this competition are designed to: (1) Disseminate information on the materials and the AEPD in the LINCS Resource Collection 6 to each eligible agency in the region that the applicant proposes to serve pursuant to the Select a region requirement in this notice (the applicant’s selected region), and to adult education and related organizations within each State and outlying area in that region; (2) collaborate closely with eligible agencies to organize and deliver virtual or in-person AEPD; and (3) foster the use of new technologies, including virtual moderated communities of practice 7 (CoP), for adult educators. The Department plans to award grants for the RPDCs under the terms of cooperative agreements, giving the Department substantial direct operational involvement in the management and implementation of the activities undertaken by the RPDCs. In conducting the required activities under the cooperative agreements awarded under this competition, LINCS RPDC grantees must: (1) Use the LINCS Resource Collection materials and other AEPD materials available on the Department’s LINCS Web site for dissemination and AEPD, and (2) work collaboratively with the Department’s LINCS Resource Collection contractor and the LINCS technical services contractor to meet the project’s goals, objectives, and outcomes as required in paragraph (a) of the Develop a project design requirement in this notice. By structuring the required activities under 5 The current cooperative agreements under section 242 of the AEFLA for the three LINCS RRCs expire September 30, 2011. The three current RRCs develop and deliver professional development to recipients approved by the National Institute for Literacy (NIFL). Congress did not appropriate funds for NIFL in FY 2010. Therefore, the LINCS projects will be funded under section 243 of the AEFLA, National Leadership Activities. The LINCS RPDCs funded under this competition will be required to use professional development designed by the LINCS Resource Collection contractor with direction from and approval by the Department. 6 For more information on the LINCS Resource Collection, see https://lincs.ed.gov/lincs/ resourcecollections/resource_collections.html. 7 Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly (see https://www.ewenger.com/ theory/).
