SUMMARY:Improving Learning at Scale: Instructional Support for Effective La
 rge-Scale Reading Interventions
DESCRIPTION:25 May 2022\, 1:00-2:45 pm BST\nOnline only\nLearning outcomes 
 are low and instructional improvements are needed in many classrooms in lo
 w- and middle-income countries (LMICs). These shortcomings are particularl
 y concerning given the substantial learning loss due to COVID-19\, from wh
 ich many education systems are suffering.\nThe Learning at Scale Study has
  been designed to investigate factors contributing to successful improveme
 nts in foundational learning outcomes in eight of the most effective large
 -scale early grade education programs in LMICs.\nThe study explores three 
 overarching research questions\, focused on understanding the components o
 f instructional practices\, instructional supports\, and system supports t
 hat lead to effective instruction and improved learning outcomes. Each of 
 these components is summarized in a series of short user-friendly briefs.\
 nThis event will explore the findings from the second brief which addresse
 s the research question:\nWhat methods of training and support lead to tea
 chers adopting effective classroom practices in successful\, large-scale l
 iteracy programs?\nDuring the event\, you will hear from the authors of th
 e study\, as well as from practitioners from three of the eight featured p
 rograms that are successfully improving reading outcomes at scale. Feature
 d programs will include the Lecture Pour Tous program in Senegal\, the Nor
 thern Education Initiative (NEI) Plus program in Nigeria\, and the Scaling
 -up Early Reading Intervention (SERI) program in India.\nConfirmed speaker
