Bridging the Gap Between Research and Practice
The 2005 conference was a success! Participants attended sessions on topics such as Corrective Reading, IDEA reauthorization, peer assisted learning strategies, research-based practices, writing, spelling, and many, many more. The luncheon and evening social provided everyone with an opportunity to network and a chance to win cash prizes! Registrants came from all over the United States and several foreign countries. After a refreshing and informative several days, we are all looking forward to next year's conference in San Francisco!
