SEDL Letter
SEDL is a private, not-for-profit corporation specializing in education research, development and dissemination (RD&D). SEDL works with educators, parents, community members, and policymakers to build, find and use strategies and tools addressing educational problems. One such tool is SEDL Letter, SEDL's institutional magazine, that covers issues of teaching, learning, and policy as they affect K-12 education.
SEDL Letter examines issues that affect schools and districts today: teaching, reading, hiring and supporting quality teachers, and improving student achievement. The mix of articles varies with each issue but usually covers national and regional trends, research findings, and promising practices. Other features include essays from classroom teachers and instructional activities for use in the classroom.
