Job Summary
Please note: duration will be for approximately six months; 24 - 32 hours per week.
The UCSF Dyslexia Center (https://dyslexia.ucsf.edu/) focuses on improving diagnosis, care, and interventions for children and adults with learning challenges and includes principal investigators across two different departments, Neurology and Psychiatry. Our multidisciplinary research team includes renowned neuroscientists, geneticists, and clinicians across language, reading, cognition, aging, visuospatial, and social domains who examine the whole person throughout the lifespan. This multifaceted approach helps us to characterize the strengths and weaknesses associated with dyslexia and to develop interventions and educational strategies to help children with dyslexia thrive.
The Dyslexia Center has developed a state-funded early reading screening tool for students in kindergarten, first, and second grades, called Multitudes (https://multitudesinfo.ucsf.edu/). Available at no cost to all public schools in the state of California, Multitudes will assist educators in identifying possible reading obstacles and intervening early to prevent these difficulties from holding students back. It will also highlight student strengths, leveraging each individual’s knowledge and abilities. Grounded in the latest research in the neuroscience of reading, Multitudes is designed to identify students who may experience reading difficulty and provide actionable results and practical next steps for their educators.
We are seeking skilled education and training professionals to support the statewide implementation of Multitudes as Training Specialists. The Training Specialists will join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team committed to improving literacy outcomes for young students across California. Their role will be to facilitate training sessions, both virtually and in person at school locations around the state, to assist users in the adoption and use of the Multitudes platform and screener with their K-2 students.
