Appendix F. Equipped for the Future Role Maps and Domain Skills4
As quoted from the National institute for Literacy’s website www.nifl.gov/lincs/collections/eff/eff_roles.html, the Equipped for the Future Role Maps “describe what adults do when they are effective in their roles as parents/family members, workers, and citizens/community members. EFF partners developed the role maps by asking adults from many different walks of life to describe what they needed to be able to do to fulfill these three roles.”
“Each role map includes the following parts: the key purpose or central aim of the role, broad areas of responsibility that are the critical functions that adults perform, and key activities through which the role is performed. We can use the role maps to identify what it is important for us to teach and learn.”
Beginning on the following page are the Role Maps for Parent/Family, Worker, and Citizen/Community Worker, and finally, a list of skills form the four domains in the EFF Standards.
