The Language and Reading Research Consortium

The Language and Reading Research Consortium is a collaborative effort among researchers and educators focused on improving literacy development. Their goal is to understand how children learn to read and identify effective teaching strategies, especially for students facing reading challenges. By studying reading habits, language skills, and instructional methods, they aim to develop evidence-based practices that help all students become confident, proficient readers. The consortium conducts research, shares findings, and supports educators in applying the best approaches to foster literacy skills from early childhood through later grades.
