Ep. 42: What the Research Says about Social Studies Instruction and Reading Comprehension with The Fordham Institute's Adam Tyner
Adam Tyner, Associate Director of Research at the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, joins us to unpack his recent research findings on Social Studies Instruction and Reading Comprehension: Evidence from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study. A snapshot of this study is highlighted in EducationWeek's article, Does Social Studies Build Stronger Readers? A New Study Suggests So. We ask Adam about possible reasons why and how social studies instruction impacts reading comprehension, and make connections to why this research is compelling for HQIM implementers. If you'd like to hear more from Adam, you can find him moonlighting on The Fordham Institute's The Education Gadfly Show Podcast.
