SUMMARY:The Science of Reading: Application to Deaf Learners
DESCRIPTION:\nAccording to the Ontario Human Rights Commission’s Right to Read Inquiry Report (2022) ( https://www3.ohrc.on.ca/en/right-read-inquiry-report-0 ), the Science of Reading refers to “the vast body of scientific research that has studied how reading skills develop and how to ensure the highest degree of success in teaching all children to read.” In part one of this two-part webinar series, the presenters will draw upon the research in the field of reading (e.g., Simple View of Reading, Scarborough’s Reading Rope) and deaf education (e.g., Qualitative Similarity Hypothesis) to explore the application of the Science of Reading to deaf learners. Following the first session, participants will be asked to identify priority topics for the second session, which will focus on instructional strategies to meet the needs of a range of learners.\nBios\nConnie Mayer is a Professor and Academic Coordinator of the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Teacher Education Program in the Faculty of Education at York University, Toronto, an Honorary Professor in the Division of Human Communication, Development and Hearing at the University of Manchester, UK, and Senior Associate Editor of the American Annals of the Deaf. Her research focuses on language and literacy development in deaf learners, cochlear implantation, communication approaches and bilingualism, and models of teacher education.\nBeverly Trezek is an Associate Professor and the Tashia F. Morgridge Distinguished Chair in Reading in the Department of Rehabilitation Psychology and Special Education at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research focuses on teacher preparation in reading as well as literacy development for beginning and struggling readers, with a particular emphasis on students who are deaf or hard of hearing.\nASL interpretation will be provided.\n\n \n
