General Admission

Reading and writing are typically researched, taught, and resourced as separate domains; and yet the science shows they are deeply interconnected, drawing on shared and distinct cognitive mechanisms. &nbsp; Dr. Kim &nbsp;will introduce an integrated framework for understanding literacy development, drawing on her forthcoming book Cultivating the Reader and Writer: Teaching Literacy as an Integrated Science (Guilford Press, 2026). The talk introduces three original theoretical models, DIER (reading), DIEW (writing), and the Interactive Dynamic Literacy model (reading-writing connections), and their implications for teaching and assessment for students from diverse backgrounds.&nbsp; We know you will enjoy and learn from Dr. Kim&rsquo;s expertise and guidance in this area. Interested people will be invited to an upcoming book study group.
