Science of Reading Week Podcast: Ask Me Anything with Donna Hejtmanek
We all want our students to have access to the highest-quality literacy education available, but it can be difficult to determine what tools are actually effective and evidence-based. In this ask-me-anything style Q&A with Donna Hejtmanek, reading specialist and founder of the popular “Science of Reading - What I Should Have Learned in College” Facebook group, Donna and co-moderator Jennifer Cyr answer questions about the science of reading and in-class implementation.
Hejtmanek and Cyr discuss the importance of integrating the science of reading into the systems and structures of school districts, highlighting the crucial role that administrators play in the adoption of evidence-based teaching practices. Listeners have the opportunity to learn more about the science of reading while also getting recommendations for professional learning resources.
