Teaching Learning Leading K12

Kristen Walter is the Director of U.S. Programs for Worldreader. This is episode 458 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.

Joining me here today is Kristen Walter, Director, U.S. Programs at Worldreader.

Kristen has more than twenty years of educational experience and was most recently the Director of Education and Partnerships for Reading In Motion and before that the Teaching and Learning Manager for Crayola Education. She also worked for over 15 years as a certified art and music instructor in North Carolina.

Kristen helped her school become a national Title I school, P21 Exemplar School, a finalist award in the Intel Schools of Distinction Math and Science Award and win the National School Change Award. She has been recognized as a Yale Distinguished Music Educator and both Kristen and her fifth-grade students were invited by the President’s Committee on the Arts and Humanities to showcase an economics and game design project at the first annual White House Arts Integration Fair.

Today she joins us to talk about her work at Worldreader.   Worldreader is a global nonprofit headquartered in San Francisco. Worldreader uses 21st century technology to deliver a digital library to children around the world and in the United States.   Its goal is to support vulnerable and underserved communities with digital reading solutions that help improve learning outcomes, workforce readiness, and gender equity.
