As our world grows and shifts, so does our understanding of what it means to be literate. Sense-making through reading, writing, speaking, and listening is nuanced when we consider the numerous modes of information—texts—we encounter each day. Since we know that information presents itself in layered, multi-dimensional formats, we need to explicitly teach strategies so students can navigate print, digital, social, emotional, and more.
Below, you'll see a curated collection of PD options designed to elevate your expertise in literacy instruction, developed and presented by Heinemann authors, education practitioners, and researchers.
