Research-to-Practice Webinars on Early Learning Brain
The NYC Research Network is a Research-Practice-Partnership that aims to bridge the gaps between research, policy, and practice. The Network’s Research-to-Practice (R2P) sessions are part of this effort. The intention of these webinars is to encourage dialogue and engagement between practitioners in early childhood care and education and researchers.
The Network was happy to have Dr. Carolyn Strom from NYU and Dr. Muriel Rand from New Jersey, City University share about The Early Learning Brain. Their session highlighted research on The Science of Reading, with a focus on the early years. Participants engaged in conversation around what this looks like in the classroom and practical routines to support the early brain – such as story play as a method to facilitate the development of reading conversation. Edited versions of both sections of the webinar are available now for viewing through our Video Library.
