Lighting the Way: The Reading Panel Report Ought to Guide Teacher Preparation
Rickenbrode, Robert; Walsh, Kate
American Educator, v37 n2 p30-35 Sum 2013
In 2000, the National Reading Panel report identified five essential components of effective reading instruction: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. Yet a new study of university-based teacher preparation programs finds that few cover these components, leaving teachers without research-based expertise. (Contains 2 tables, 15 endnotes, and 3 footnotes.)
