Free Adult Literacy/Adult Education Apps - XPrize Competition

Join Team ProLiteracy!

Change the world by joining the ProLiteracy Adult Literacy XPRIZE Communities Competition team!

If you or someone you know wants to improve their basic literacy, math skills, or English language skills, please join us for this amazing opportunity!


We have joined Team ProLiteracy in the effort to transform the lives of adult learners everywhere. ProLiteracy, a leader in adult literacy for more than 60 years, has established a team for the Adult Literacy XPRIZE Communities Competition to help get proven educational apps into the hands of thousands of learners nationwide.


HOW IT WORKS
By joining Team ProLiteracy, you, your learners, or friends/family (also known as “users,”) will have access to FREE, proven-effective Adult Literacy XPRIZE competition finalists’ education apps. The competition runs from April 1 through August 31, 2019. AND, users will be able to use the apps for free for one full year after the competition ends—until August 31, 2020!


WHY JOIN TEAM PROLITERACY
ProLiteracy has made it easy by providing a complete toolkit that includes support and instruction for downloading and using the apps and links to recorded and live informational webinars. Most importantly, if ProLiteracy is one of the top winners, prize money will go directly back to programs through the National Book Fund to help provide more learners with quality educational materials (including apps). Programs that participate on the ProLiteracy Team for the XPRIZE Communities Competition will be given special preference
for National Book Fund grants distributed.


THE APPS
Four apps will be used throughout the competition.
1. These apps must be downloaded and used on Android smartphones or tablets. Usage on computers, iPhones, or iPads unfortunately do not count for this competition.
2. Each participant must use at least one app on at least three different days. They can use as many apps as desired, but only the one app used at least three different days will be counted toward the competition results.
3. To be counted for the competition, the ProLiteracy code 1155 must be entered during app download. See the “TEAM RESOURCES” section below for all information participants need to understand and download apps.
4. Visit the Google Play Store on your Android device and search the app name to get started:
