Putting Reading First Myths Related Resources and Products By contrast, reading acquisition is not natural. While the ability to understand speech evolved over many, many thousands of years, reading and writing are human inventions that have been around for merely a few thousand years. It has been only within the past few generations that some cultures have made any serious attempt to make literacy universal among their citizens. If reading were natural, everybody would be doing it, and we would not have to worry about dealing with a 'literacy gap.'

Extractions: ERIC Digest December 2001 EDO-FL-01-08 English Language Learners With Special Needs Effective Instructional Strategies Students fail in school for a variety of reasons. In some cases, their academic difficulties can be directly attributed to deficiencies in the teaching and learning environment. For example, students with limited English may fail because they do not have access to effective bilingual or English as a second language (ESL) instruction. Students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds may have difficulty if instruction presumes middle-class experiences. Other students may have learning difficulties stemming from linguistic or cultural differences. These difficulties may become more serious over time if instruction is not modified to address the students' specific needs. Unless these students receive appropriate intervention, they will continue to struggle, and the gap between their achievement and that of their peers will widen over time. Improving the academic performance of students who from non-English backgrounds requires a focus on the prevention of failure and on early intervention for struggling learners. This digest presents a framework for meeting the needs of these students in general education and suggests ways to operationalize prevention and early intervention to ensure that students meet their academic potential.

Roadmap To Success PLATO Learning provides a comprehensive reading remediation program and implementing the latest instructional design and teaching methodologies. http://www.plato.com/community/roadmap/2005/02/funding_reform.html
Extractions: High School Reform The FY 2005 budget and proposed FY 2006 budget renew a focus on high school reform with several funding streams receiving increases to support reform goals. The President's FY 2005 budget will request $1.5 billion for a new high school initiative to help establish high school accountability and to provide effective and timely intervention for those students who are not performing at grade level. Below we will summarize the 2005 initiatives already approved, the proposed 2006 initiatives, and identify ways PLATO Learning helps to meet the requirements of each program. 2005 High School Reform Efforts Under the Jobs for the 21st Century initiative, states and districts are asked to develop and implement research-based interventions to help improve the skills of secondary school students. Many of those students are at risk for dropping out of school. The following programs are funded under the Jobs for the 21st Century initiative to help students successfully transition to post-secondary education and the workforce. A. Striving Readers
