About this episode

This edWeb podcast is sponsored by WordFlight, a Foundations in Learning Solution.
The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here.

In this edWeb podcast, noted literacy scholars Maryanne Wolf, author of Reader, Come Home: The Reading Brain in a Digital World, and Tim Odegard, a leading dyslexia expert, along with reading researcher Carolyn Brown, Ph.D., discuss the conditions that support not only fluency, but also deep reading. The development of the complex and interactive neural networks necessary for deep reading is framed by Maryanne’s multi-componential approach for building fluency.

Join us as they:

  • Unlock how fluent readers automatically integrate multiple components of word knowledge: phonology, orthography, morphology, semantics, and syntax
  • Present models of learning and practice that support automatic word recognition and fluency
  • Consider the role of technology in developing fluency

This edWeb podcast is of interest to elementary and middle school teachers, reading coaches, literacy coaches, and school and district leaders.
