Webinar: Supporting Literacy Success with Reading Progress & Immersive Reader

SUPPORTING LITERACY SUCCESS WITH READING PROGRESS & IMMERSIVE READER
Students who struggle with reading are at a disadvantage from their peers engaging in their learning community and demonstrating knowledge. In this session we will look at the free, accessible Immersive Reader tool and it’s many applications which help to increase accessiblity and level the playing field for struggling readers. We will also learn about the NEWLY RELEASED Reading Progress tool designed to analyze and monitor the progress of readers. Reading Progress was developed with feedback from educators and top reading experts like Dr. Tim Rasinski, Dr. Mark Seidenberg and Dr. Pam Allyn and over 300 educators.
Reading Progress works great for emerging readers, struggling readers, non-native speakers, special education and adult education. This tool is free and accessible for educators and students everywhere!

Our speaker is RACHEL BERGER.   Rachel is the Dyslexia and LD Community Leader, as well as the Executive Director of Decoding Dyslexia Minnesota. She is a learning disability assistive tech specialist for MicrosoftEDU, evangelizing, training, and supporting the assistive technology community. Over the course of her career, Rachel has been instrumental to numerous legislative and public policy initiatives around literacy and disability rights on the local and national level.
