“You want to have a clear set of goals…and they have to be in terms of student outcomes,” Stanford Professor of Education, Emeritus Dr. Claude Goldenberg says in Episode 7 of All for Literacy podcast, where we explore the science of reading with industry leaders.

Goldenberg dives into his early career experiences teaching eighth-grade remedial reading classes in San Antonio, Texas, before going on to earn a Ph.D. from the University of California, Los Angeles, in early childhood education studies. He also authored the pivotal study “Successful School Change: Creating Settings to Improve Teaching and Learning.” Goldenberg’s current research focuses on improving achievement for language minority students, particularly those from Latino backgrounds.

Join podcast host Dr. Liz Brooke for the continuation of her discussion with Goldenberg. The pair explores his experience with literacy instruction and how to use student-centered goals to create institutional change.
