THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAS INTRODUCED MANY CHALLENGES FOR TEACHERS AND CREATED A PLETHORA OF LEARNING LIMITATIONS FOR STUDENTS. THESE CHALLENGES ARE EXACERBATED AMONG UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. SEEMINGLY, DISTANCE EDUCATION IS THE ANSWER. HOWEVER, TEACHERS AREN'T EQUIPPED, ONLINE MATERIALS ARE STAGNANT, AND THE RESOURCES THAT ARE AVAILABLE DO NOT INCLUDE THE CRITICAL STEM TOPICS OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE. THIS PROJECT WILL RAPIDLY DELIVER 8 ENGAGING, AND STANDARDS-BASED COURSES (120 MODULES) IN AGRICULTURE, FOOD, AND NATURAL RESOURCES FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS NEEDING ONLINE/DIGITAL LEARNING OPTIONS; ESTABLISH DUAL CREDIT OPTIONS FOR COMPLETERS OF THE ONLINE/DIGITAL MICROADAPTIVE LEARNING COURSES THROUGH UNIVERSITY/COLLEGE-LEVEL FACULTY COURSES REVIEW AND AN INNOVATIVE COURSE SHARING PLATFORM; MARKET AND DISSEMINATE COURSES TO UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS; AND CONDUCT NATIONAL QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH WITH STUDENTS, PARENTS, HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS, AND COLLEGE FACULTY TO DETERMINEPERCEPTIONS AND IMPACT OF THE COURSES/MODULES. WE WILL RECRUIT HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS THAT CAN DOCUMENT THEY HAVE CONTENT AND ACTIVITIES FOR A COURSE TIED TO ONE OF THE NATIONAL AFNR PATHWAY AREAS THROUGH MIN-GRANT PROCESS. SELECTED TEACHERS WILL WORK WITH COGBOOKS PLANNERS, INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNERS, AND MICRO-ADAPTIVE COURSE DEVELOPERS TO ROLLOUT 8 COURSES IN JUST THREE MONTHS. FACULTY MENTORS WILL ASSIST WITH CONTENT CONTRIBUTION AND DUALLY VET THE COURSES FOR USE AT THE COLLEGE LEVEL, ENSURING THE COURSES DEVELOPED IN THIS GRANT CAN HELP STUDENTS ACHIEVE ACADEMICALLY AT THE HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE LEVEL. THE EIGHT COURSES WILL BE LOADED ONTO A NATIONAL COURSE SHARING PLATFORM (QUOTTLY) SO THAT STUDENTS CAN USE THEM AT ANY INSTITUTION WHERE AGREEMENTS HAVE BEEN REACHED.$1,000,000
