ILA DIGITAL EVENTS

No more talk about learning loss—it only reduces the impact that our expectations have on students’ learning. Instead, what if we talk about learning leaps? What if we identify where students are in their literacy learning and the critical skills that they must learn now to accelerate their performance in the future? And what if we raise our expectations for students rather than lower them?

In this ILA Webinar, Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey will discuss some of their biggest priorities as educators make the transition back to face-to-face learning.

Duke about the forthcoming article “The Science of Reading Comprehension Instruction,” coauthored with Alessandra E. Ward and P. David Pearson. Attendees will receive advance online access to the article and learn specific research-tested instructional practices for developing students’ understanding of text.
