The One About…

Lifting literacy Through Handwriting Instruction with Shawn Datchuk

“Handwriting can be an effective way for students to learn important early reading and writing skills. As noted in a recent systematic review, handwriting instruction during kindergarten can improve both writing and reading outcomes, such as knowledge of letter names and sounds, spelling, and word reading (Ray et al., 2022). Indeed, research suggests a close link between writing and reading overall, including a strong relationship between the development of early writing and reading skills, such as spelling and word reading (Kim et al., 2024). In spite of these ties, handwriting is rarely mentioned in the national conversation on how to improve the reading performance of elementary students”

Dr. Shawn Datchuk Bio:

https://irrc.education.uiowa.edu/people/shawn-datchuk

Shawn Datchuk is the director of the Iowa Reading Research Center and a faculty member in the University of Iowa College of Education. Under his direction, Shawn aims to ensure that the IRRC’s efforts: (a) make it easier for teachers to teach reading and (b) make it easier for students to learn how to read and use reading to learn. He works with IRRC staff and college faculty to achieve these aims by conducting research, providing technical assistance to schools, and translating research findings for teachers and caregivers. As a former K-12 special education teacher, elementary teacher, director of special education, and academic performance director, he believes all students should have access to high-quality literacy instruction. He received his Master of Education and Doctor of Philosophy in special education from Pennsylvania State University. Outside of his work at the center, you can find him spending time with his family at a local park, pool, or museum.

The One About…
New Research Study on thinkSRSD with Dr. Leslie Laud, Nate Joseph, and Robert Mitchell

Article:
ThinkSRSD A Secondary Analysis Cohort Investigation [Working Paper]
July 2024

Conflict of Interest Statement:
The first and second authors of this manuscript were contracted by ThinkSRSD to independently evaluate the efficacy of ThinkSRSD. Both authors received financial compensation for their work. However, a contract was established between the first author and ThinkSRSD outlining ethical practices, including a commitment to uphold the principles of ethical and open science. This contract mandated that all research outcomes, regardless of results, be shared publicly.

Quote:
“Out of the 97 schools analyzed, every single treatment school, or schools averaged as a group within a district if the full-district took part, outperformed their control cohort.”

Dr.Leslie Laud
Dr. Leslie Laud supports teachers, schools, districts and states nationally with strengthening writing instruction. She has taught in both general and special education, and worked as a principal. She holds a doctorate from Columbia University, where she was mentored by Dr. Judith Birsh in explicit reading instruction, Dr. Lyn Corno in self-regulated learning and Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond in school change. She has served as co-PI and lead PI on federally-funded large research studies of writing instruction, publishes empirical studies in peer-reviewed journals and presents frequently at national conferences.

College Students Aren’t Reading with Donna Hejtmanek

Article: “The College Kids Are Not All Right”

Reports from professors point to an alarming decline in cognitive capabilities, even at selective institutions by Natalie Wexler

June 2, 2024

https://nataliewexler.substack.com/p/the-college-kids-are-not-all-right

Quote:

“Students are intimidated by anything over 10 pages and seem to walk away from readings of as little as 20 pages with no real understanding.”

“We are in new territory when even highly motivated honors students struggle to grasp the basic argument of a 20-page article.”

Why is this happening? What are the reasons for the decline? 

Donna Hejtmanek bio:

Donna Hejtmanek (hite-man-ik) retired after 41 years of teaching special education and serving as a reading specialist-interventionist. She served as president of the Literacy Task Force of Northern Wisconsin, was appointed by Gov. Scott Walker in 2014 to Wisconsin’s Read to Lead Literacy Council, served as the legislative chair of the International Dyslexia Association and served on The Legislative Council Study Committee on the Identification and Management of Dyslexia in 2018, resulting in Wisconsin’s first dyslexia bill, Act 86, signed into legislation in 2019. Hejtmanek was awarded the Herb Kohl Teacher Fellowship Award in 2016.  Donna retired in 2018.  In retirement, she spends her days creating professional development opportunities for teachers on her Facebook group, Science of Reading—What I Should Have Learned in College, and is a co-owner of Credentials Unlimited, providing opportunities for non-credit micro-credentials.

Curriculum Implementation with Robert Pondiscio and Rivet Education

Article: “Taking Curriculum Implementation Seriously”

https://fordhaminstitute.org/national/commentary/taking-curriculum-implementation-seriously#

Quote: “This involved multiple phases, which Rivet categorizes as ‘exploration; program installation; initial implementation; consistent implementation; and innovation and sustainability.’”

Robert Pondiscio Bio:

Robert Pondiscio is a senior visiting fellow at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute and a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI)

He writes and speaks extensively on education and education-reform issues, with an emphasis on literacy, curriculum, civic education, and classroom practice. His 2019 book, How the Other Half Learns, based on a year of observations at New York City’s Success Academy network of charter schools, was praised as “morally disturbing” and “unsparingly honest” by the New York Times. After twenty years in journalism, including senior positions at TIME and Business Week, Robert became a fifth-grade teacher at a struggling South Bronx public school in 2002. He subsequently served as vice president for the Core Knowledge Foundation, taught civics at Democracy Prep Public Schools, a network of high-performing charter schools based in Harlem, New York, and was a Senior Fellow and Vice President for External Affairs here at Fordham. 

Robert’s articles and op-ed columns on education have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, the Atlantic, the New York Daily News, Education Next, and dozens of other publications. A frequent speaker and expert guest on education issues, he has appeared on the Fox News Channel, CNN, and elsewhere.

Link to instructional tool:https://riveteducation.org/navigating-the-instructional-materials-implementation-journey/
As co-founder and principal consultant at Rivet Education, Annie works with state and local education agencies to develop and execute cohesive academic strategies to scale the use of high-quality instructional materials with a specific focus on the communications needed to execute those strategies well. Most recently, she has been supporting the Delaware, New Mexico, and Maryland Departments of Education with the implementation of HQIM.
Before founding Rivet, Annie served as the Director of Communications for the Louisiana Department of Education, where she managed and led educator relations for the agency. During her seven years with the agency, she developed and executed state-wide and national public relations strategies related to the state’s academic plan, impacting over 100 school systems and 50,000 educators state-wide. Her passion for starting Rivet lies in the impact that she witnessed the state’s alignment of standards, curriculum, assessments, and professional development have on schools and school systems across the state.
Annie holds a B.A. from Louisiana State University. View Annie’s full resume.

Harriett Janetos Bio:

Over 35 years in education, Harriett has taught every grade level K-12: beginning reading to Advanced Placement English. After teaching high school English for 8 years, she took child-rearing leave and spent that time presenting as a teacher-consultant for the Bay Area Writing Project, getting her Master's in writinginstruction, and doing volunteer lessons in her children's elementary school classrooms. Following a move to the elementary school level where she taught kindergarten through fourth grade, she received a reading specialist credential and has worked as a reading specialist for the past 13 years, initially with grades 4th to 6th and then over the past eight years with grades first and second. This year she published an instructional guide to reading, From Sound to Summary: Braiding the Reading Rope to Make Words Make Sense.

The One About…
Program Review Protocols with Dr. Timothy Shanahan
Timothy Shanahan’s latest blog on problems with textbook reviews got us talking!
Shanahan took some time out of his busy schedule to join us on The Literacy View to
discuss problems and his suggested solutions.
Shanahan on Literacy Article:
What About Textbook Reviews?
https://www.shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/what-about-the-textbook-reviews
Quote:
Despite the rhetoric of these groups, the term “evidence aligned” is meaningless. Often
there is no direct evidence that what is being required has ever benefited children’s
learning in a research study.

TIMOTHY SHANAHAN bio:
Timothy Shanahan is Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of Illinois at
Chicago where he was Founding Director of the UIC Center for Literacy. Previously, he
was director of reading for the Chicago Public Schools. He is author/editor of more than
200 publications on literacy education. His research emphasizes the connections
between reading and writing, literacy in the disciplines, and improvement of reading
achievement.
Tim is past president of the International Literacy Association. He served as a member
of the Advisory Board of the National Institute for Literacy under Presidents George W.
Bush and Barack Obama, and he helped lead the National Reading Panel, convened at
the request of Congress to evaluate research on the teaching reading, a major influence
on reading education. He chaired two other federal research review panels: the National
Literacy Panel for Language Minority Children and Youth, and the National Early
Literacy Panel, and helped write the Common Core State Standards.
He was inducted to the Reading Hall of Fame in 2007 and is a former first-grade
teacher.
