ASCD, the global leader in providing programs, products, and services that empower educators to support the success of each learner, and the publisher of more than 40 education books a year, is launching a short-format imprint with the debut of its first four ASCD Arias™ professional development publications.

Each short-format publication will be 48 pages in length and will answer a crucial and timely “How do I…?” question. ASCD Arias contain original, standalone content that can be read in one sitting and immediately applied to practice.

National Geographic Learning (NGL), part of Cengage Learning and a provider of quality educational materials for the PreK‐12, higher education, adult education and ELT markets, today announced the availability of Reach for Reading, a new, comprehensive K-5 Common Core reading program. This innovative program features authentic, multicultural literature paired with exclusive content from National Geographic and real-world accounts from the National Geographic Explorers. Reach for Reading was constructed by a team of industry-leading authors, including Nancy Frey, Patricia Edwards and Deborah Short, among others.
