S. extra-state jurisdictions. CCSSO provides leadership, advocacy, and technical assistance on major educational issues. The Council seeks member consensus on major educational issues and expresses their views to civic and professional organizations, federal agencies, Congress, and the public.  \nMargie Vandeven (Missouri), President  \nCarissa Moffat Miller, Chief Executive Officer  \nIMPD NETWORK  \nIn 2017, CCSSO and a cohort of interested states launched the  High-Quality  Instructional Materials and Professional Development (IMPD) Network dedicated to ensuring that every student, every day, is engaged in meaningful, affirming, grade-level instruction. To realize this vision, research suggests that high-quality, standards-aligned curricula and professional learning connected to that curricula are crucial. CCSSO’s IMPD Network supports states as they work with their districts to adopt HQIM, provide professional development opportunities aligned to those materials and work with educator preparation providers to incorporate a focus on the use of HQIM.  \nCouncil of Chief State School Officers One Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Suite 800 Washington, DC 20001  \n[www.ccsso.org](www.ccsso.org)  \nADVANCING LITERACY EDUCATION  \n© 2024 by the Council of Chief State School Officers,(ADVANCING LITERACY EDUCATION A Comprehensive Strategy for Embedding and Scaling the Science of Reading and High-Quality Instructional Materials in Educator Preparation Programs), except where otherwise noted, is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0) .  \nThis brief aims to inform state leaders on a novel approach to advancing teacher preparation practices currently piloted by the High-Quality Instructional Materials and Professional Development (IMPD) Network Educator Preparation Program (EPP) Workgroup.1 This approach is designed to equip future teachers with necessary knowledge and skills relative to the science of reading (SoR) and high-quality instructional materials (HQIM), ensuring that their future students receive high-quality instruction. It is the first of a series of briefs that will share the workgroup’s progress.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nAn increasing number of states have passed or are considering legislation requiring scientificallybased reading instruction. These laws typically require states to:  \n• Provide training to literacy teachers in SoR.  \n• Require EPPs to prepare aspiring teachers to use SoR-based practices.  \n• Identify or provide guidance to school systems on selecting HQIM that are SoR aligned for school systems to adopt.  \nCCSSO’s Science of Reading Legislation and Implementation State Scan shares additional information on SoR legislation and how states are approaching the implementation of that legislation.  \nEnsuring that teachers are equipped with these skills will require significant changes in how aspiring educators are prepared to teach reading. State education agencies play a critical role in supporting and incentivizing EPPs to make these changes and in advancing policies that codify these changes. With these dynamics in mind, CCSSO’s IMPD Network EPP Workgroup has collaboratively designed an approach that provides state leaders with a structure","cbCaikXOW5DfRB7C","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikXOW5DfRB7C","pdf",459321,"English","# Introduction\n## IMPD Network purpose and rationale\n## State requirements and policy landscape\n## Coordinated strategy for scalable implementation","[{\"question\":\"What does the brief aim to achieve for state leaders?\",\"answer\":\"It informs state leaders about a novel, scalable approach being piloted by the IMPD Network Educator Preparation Program Workgroup to strengthen teacher preparation aligned to the science of reading and high-quality instructional materials.\"},{\"question\":\"Which state-facing supports are included in the proposed strategy?\",\"answer\":\"The strategy supports states with a rigorous on-site EPP review process, guidance for embedding expert-designed SoR course content into K-12 literacy methods coursework, and a plan to scale these changes statewide through accountability and continued support.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is program approval used as a lever in this approach?\",\"answer\":\"Program approval is used to drive statewide improvement by holding educator preparation programs accountable for ensuring teacher candidates can use SoR and aligned HQIM, while also enabling continuous improvement.\"}]","ADVANCING LITERACY EDUCATION - A Comprehensive Strategy for Embedding and Scaling the Science of Reading and High-Quality Instructional Materials in Educator Preparation Programs | PDF",1792050240,18,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":99},[100,104,108,112,117,122,126,129,134,137,141],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":109,"show_sort_weight":110,"slug":111},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":113,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":114,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":116},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":118,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":123,"show_sort_weight":124,"slug":125},"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":86,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":127,"slug":128},30,"research-report",{"id":130,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":131,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":133},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":132,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":135,"show_sort_weight":132,"slug":136},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":138,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":139,"show_sort_weight":138,"slug":140},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":142,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":143,"show_sort_weight":113,"slug":144},19,"General","general"]
