Literacy Insights Series: Ep.6 Science of Reading Comprehension (Harvard Graduate School of Education) Online
As conversations about the science of reading continue to shape instruction, reading comprehension remains one of the field’s most important — and often most misunderstood— domain. What does it take to help students not only decode text, but build knowledge, vocabulary, engagement, and understanding over time? In this episode, Phil Capin will have a conversation with Jimmy Kim (Harvard Graduate School of Education), whose research focuses on reading comprehension and the design of scalable literacy interventions that improve student outcomes. Together, they’ll explore what research tells us about supporting strong reading comprehension and what that means for classroom practice. This conversation will help teachers, specialists, and school leaders deepen their understanding of reading comprehension and consider how research-based practices can better support students in making meaning from increasingly complex text.
