Reengineering reading comprehension: Literacy instruction needs a new plan

Recent PISA results remind us that reading comprehension needs urgent attention. This session explores how the Science of Reading and new insights about the reading brain can help schools strengthen comprehension through a more intentional, evidence-based literacy approach

Attendees will gain practical insight into how evidence-based instruction and high-quality instructional materials can support deeper comprehension, helping students move beyond reading words toward understanding ideas, building knowledge, and reading the world through English.
