Welcome to the OSU Literacy Collaborative Blog!
The Literacy Collaborative trainers at The Ohio State
University are excited to begin interacting with you through this blog! The
purpose of this blog is to share current research and practices in literacy
education with administrators, literacy coaches and educators who are a part of
our Literacy Collaborative network and those who are interested in learning
more about educating children grades PreK-8.
The Literacy Collaborative network was established in 1991
and continues to provide high-quality, research-based, professional development
to hundreds of literacy coaches, intervention teachers, classroom teachers, and
administrators. Our trainers have spent many years engaging in study, training
and coaching from Drs. Gay Su Pinnell, Irene Fountas, and many other notable
names in the field of literacy education.
Before, during and after intensive training, OSU trainers implemented
this theoretical perspective in classrooms for many years. Our focus is to further
research and connect this research to practice to enhance the literacy achievement
of all students.
We plan to provide a variety of thought-provoking insights
related to the teaching and coaching of literacy education on a bi-monthly
basis. Look for our next blog during the last week of February! Our trainers
will share current thinking on relevant topics and we encourage you to share
your thoughts and experiences, as well. Please forward this blog link to colleagues so
we can build a large following and reach as many educators as possible.
