Why Literacy Reform Keeps Failing and What Actually Works
11 am PDT/ 2 pm EDT/ 6 pm GMT
Join Us for Our New Webinar: Why Literacy Reform Keeps Failing & What Actually Works
For 40 years, policymakers, educators, and experts have rolled out one reform after another, each designed to address America’s literacy crisis. Each new solution was supposed to be the answer, from “A Nation at Risk” in 1983 to the Science of Reading today. Yet, National Assessment of Educational Progress scores continue to decline, revealing that the solutions aren’t working.
Join us for a webinar in which Paul Worthington, Lindamood-Bell’s Director of Research and Development, will explore why reading instruction—even the Science of Reading—doesn’t comprehensively address the core sensory-cognitive skills that make reading possible.
In this webinar, we will discuss:
- the limitations of past reforms
- the missing cognitive components in most reading programs
- how Lindamood-Bell produces real, measurable literacy gains
