AIM Pathways is an International Dyslexia Association (IDA) accredited professional development opportunity. The
AIM Pathways to Structured Literacy
course
is designed to translate theoretical models of literacy into the evidence-based instructional practices that support students’ achievement. Prior to enrolling in
this course, participants are required to successfully complete the Pathways to Proficient Reading course. Building on the knowledge developed in that course,
this online coursework continues to strengthen educators’ knowledge and understanding of the science of reading by providing multiple opportunities to apply
this knowledge to classroom instruction. The content of the course is Orton-Gillingham based and is aligned to the International Dyslexia Association’s
Knowledge and Practice Standards for Teachers of Reading.
At the end of this professional development opportunity, you will be able to draw from your specialized knowledge in the science of reading to increase your
students’ literacy outcomes through evidence-based/prescriptive literacy instruction and intervention. The course will also prepare you for the Center for
Effective Reading Instruction’s KPEERI exam.
The start and completion of the course will occur asynchronously. Once participants gain access to the AIM Pathways platform and complete their asynchronous
tasks, they will have access to the coursework at their convenience—24 hours a day, 7 days a week, anywhere there is an internet connection.
Below is the Pacing Guide customized to your cohort’s scheduling needs. Participants will complete the asynchronous coursework sections prior to the date of
the synchronous virtual community-of-practice meetings.
