How learning is evidenced
Practice evidence
Short activities, reading responses, writing tasks, discussion or applied practice depending on the pathway.
Completion task

Progression
After completion, learners can move into a higher-level pathway within Study Reading, apply the skill in another literacy domain, join a Reading Ambassador pathway, or continue through the Reading Passport and Literacy App.
