Scholastic Red
© 2003 Scholastic, Inc.
Scholastic Red is an online professional development program, complemented by on-site workshops, that is designed to help teachers raise student achievement in reading. Courses are available for teachers of all grade levels, and participants can earn both graduate credit and continuing education credits. Courses are research-based, and aligned with many national funding programs. Teachers can take the self-paced courses from anywhere they have Internet access. Content is delivered via text and video of national reading experts. The accompanying resources, which include lesson plans, reproducibles and links to further readings and materials, are thoughtfully designed and rich in content. Scholastic Red’s reading consultants are available for on-site workshops on topics such as including “Research-based Strategies for Teaching Content-Area Comprehension” and “Guided Reading: Making It Work in Your Classroom”. They’ll also come in and “train the trainer”, making key people in your district better equipped to lead the program. Visit www.scholasticred.com for more information.
