SUMMARY:Anytime\, Anywhere Summer Learning
DESCRIPTION:The so called “summer slide” in educational achievement hits young children from low-income families the hardest. Without opportunities to read together with adults\, to practice new skills and to gain exposure to new words and ideas\, far too many young children lose two to three months of reading skills each summer. Scholars have documented that two-thirds of the ninth-grade reading achievement gap can be attributed to this loss in the elementary school years alone.\n\nHow can schools and communities address this troubling and costly phenomenon?  Could well-deployed technology help close the summer learning gap?  Several national organizations and educators are exploring how digital connections may bring new resources to families and help parents tap into affordable and motivating opportunities for their children to experience the joy of reading and learning\, offline and on.\n\nJoin us for a discussion on the impact of summer learning loss and the possibilities for anytime\, anywhere summer learning. This event is co-hosted by New America and the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop in partnership with the National Summer Learning Association and the Campaign for Grade-Level Reading.\n\nLearn more and view the event live on the day of the event on the New America website.\n\nJoin the conversation online using # and following @NewAmericaEd.

SUMMARY:Games and Learning Society Conference 10
DESCRIPTION:The GLS Conference is the premier event in the field of video games and learning. Now celebrating its tenth anniversary\, this grassroots “indie” event continues to be one of the few destinations where the people who create high-quality digital learning media can gather for serious discussion about what is happening in the field and how the field can serve the public interest.  The pre-conference Playful Learning Summit promotes professional development opportunities to celebrate and deepen educators’ use of games in various educational settings\, and fosters collaboration among teachers\, designers\, researchers and others throughout the elementary to higher education continuum.\n\nThe Cooney Center’s Lori Takeuchi will join a panel entitled “The State of the Surveys: Framing and Informing Research on Games and Learning” which will include Michelle Riconscente of New York University and Seeta Pai of Common Sense Media. Barry Fishman of the University of Michigan will moderate.\n\nFor more information\, please visit the GLS Conference website.
