As we wrap up another impactful year hosting EDVIEW360, we want to take a moment to thank you—our readers, listeners, and professional learning partners—for making 2025 a year of meaningful dialogue, shared expertise, and forward momentum in literacy education.
Literacy is a human right. Every learner, regardless of the language spoken at home, deserves access to high-quality, evidence-based instruction that is both culturally and linguistically responsive. This is especially critical for the more than 5 million students in the United States whose heritage language is not English.
There is a long tradition of reflective practice among educators. In fact, administrators at the building level and superintendents at the district level often require end-of-year reflection and goalsetting in many schools. Indeed, much has been written about this kind of reflection for the individual teacher and through mentoring practices.
