How did the National Reading Panel gather information for its study?
The Panel followed three paths for gathering information for its study. The first was to review a variety of public databases to determine what research had already been conducted on how children learn to read. The second was to gather information from the public about their needs and their understanding of reading research. The NRP accomplished this by holding public regional hearings. The third was to consult with leading education organizations that had an interest in reading issues.
