LEARNING TO READ, READING TO LEARN
Thousands of children have a learning disability, and many more fail in school because
of difficulties in learning to read. An analysis of decades of research about how young children can best
learn to read indicates that, in most cases, these difficulties can be prevented, according to the
National Center to Improve the Tools of Educators (NCITE), based at the University of Oregon. The results
of the synthesis funded by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP)
have been released through the Learning to Read, Reading to Learn public awareness campaign.
The ERIC Clearinghouse on Disabilities and Gifted Education (ERIC EC), its host
organization, The Council for Exceptional Children (CEC), and the ERIC Clearinghouse on Reading, English,
and Communication (ERIC CS) at Indiana University are among the 25 partner organizations that can provide
information about this reading research. Some of the materials included in the information kit are listed
