Description
This Medium article by Greg Twemlow introduces the "Reading Confidence Accelerator©," a program called "Stories That Connect" designed to combat the reading crisis by focusing on building students' self-belief rather than solely on literacy skills. The program uses experiential learning through collaborative storytelling, adaptable to various ages and reading levels. Twemlow outlines strategies for scaling the program, including digital expansion, train-the-trainer initiatives, and community partnerships to foster widespread adoption. The emphasis remains on transforming students' perceptions of themselves as readers, fostering confidence and empowerment. Ultimately, the aim is to create a cultural shift in which literacy confidence is valued and supported. Read the article on Medium.
