密歇根州州长格雷琴·惠特默签署新法律,规定全州K-5年级教授阅读或语言艺术的教师必须接受"阅读科学"培训 1。教师需在2031-2032学年前完成这一要求 1。
该法律旨在改善该州学生的阅读水平。根据数据,密歇根州仅38.9%的第三年级学生达到阅读熟练程度 1,该州在全国第四年级阅读评估中排名第44位 1。
为推进这项举措,州政府已拨款7500万美元用于培训 1,州教育部每年需至少选择两家供应商提供培训课程 1。培训通常需要两年时间 1。截至2024年7月1日,已有7460名教育工作者完成培训,另有5684人正在进行中 1。
惠特默表示,"读写能力是我最后一个任期的首要优先事项" 1。临时教学证书持有人不需接受此培训 1。
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has signed legislation requiring elementary teachers in grades K-5 who instruct reading or language arts to complete "science of reading" training by the 2031-2032 school year. 1
The state Department of Education must select at least two training providers annually to deliver the program. 1 The state has allocated $75 million in funding to support the initiative, with training typically requiring two years to complete. 1 As of July 1, 2024, 7,460 educators had finished the training while 5,684 others were in progress. 1
The move comes as Michigan faces significant reading proficiency challenges. Only 38.9 percent of the state's third-grade students have achieved reading proficiency, and Michigan ranked 44th nationally in fourth-grade reading assessments. 1
Whitmer described literacy as "my number one priority in my last term." 1 The mandate applies to teachers seeking standard teaching certificates; those holding provisional teaching certificates are exempt from the requirement. 1
