Providing All Students ACCESS to Self‐Regulated Literacy Learning

ACCESS is an organizational framework to help educators plan instruction that prepares students for high‐stakes tests and promotes self‐regulated literacy learning. ACCESS stands for tasks that are authentic, that require collaboration among students, that challenge students, that culminate with an end product, that allow self‐direction by giving students choices, and that sustain learning across time. Each component of ACCESS supports self‐regulated literacy learning, and the framework can be incorporated into teachers' busy schedules.
