    4.3 Strengthening the Understanding of Dyslexia Through Media with Peggy Stern

    In this episode, we’re joined by Peggy Stern for a conversation about a whole-child approach where each child no matter how he or she learns, is respected and heard, and the emotional and academic tools we can provide to develop strategies for success!  Peggy Stern is an Academy Award-winning film Producer/Director with more than 30 years of experience. Her dyslexia led her to filmmaking and animation at a young age, and in March 2006 Stern won the Oscar for Best Animated Short.  Stern has produced for PBS, HBO, Teachers College at Columbia University, The National PTA, and the National YWCA among others. She received her BA from Harvard University and her senior thesis film STEPHANIE, was turned into a PBS documentary special and broadcast nationally. SuperDville is a family affair, as her dyslexic daughter Emma has been a key advisor!  Since the launch of SuperDville, Peggy has spoken at many webinars and on many podcasts, including the Dyslexia Narrative Conference, the Dyslexia Training Institute Virtual Conference, Learning Ally's Spotlight on Early Literacy Virtual Conference, Embracing the Whole Child with Punkinfutz, The Virtual Summer Dyslexia Institute Conference, The Pakistan Grower's Circle Webinar, Denver Courage to Risk Conference, Stand Up LD Panel Discussion, and the UK Rebel Voices Virtual International Dyslexia Conference.

  5. 4.2 Are students with dyslexia getting lost in the SOR movement?

    14 OCT

    4.2 Are students with dyslexia getting lost in the SOR movement?

    The recent movement to look deeply into the Science of Reading (SOR) has shifted the training we seek for teachers, the training and programs endorsed at the state level, and the curriculum school districts purchase. So, why are our students still not reading and writing proficiently? Is it the instruction, curriculum, or teacher training and knowledge that is seriously impacting learning outcomes? Or, is it a combination of all three factors? In this episode, we discuss the SOR movement and why some students, particularly those with dyslexia, seem to be getting lost in the debate. Resources mentioned in this episode: The new “science of reading” movement, explained 1.12: The Importance of Building Teacher Knowledge and The Peter Effect 2.14 Using Evaluations to Better Understand Our Learners with Katy Vassar What Is Specific Learning Disorder?
