Redefining Dyslexia: What Every Educator Should Know About the 2025 IDA Update (edWeb) Online
The definition of dyslexia is evolving—and the implications reach far beyond the classroom. In this edWebinar, dyslexia expert Donell Pons, M.Ed., M.A.T., joins Dr. Robert Rogers, pediatrician and President of The Reading League Texas, to explore what the 2025 International Dyslexia Association (IDA) definition means for policy, instruction, diagnosis, and student well-being. Together, they’ll unpack the key changes from the 2002 to the proposed 2025 IDA definition, how definitions influence identification, funding, and teacher training, and the growing recognition of emotional, psychological, and intergenerational impacts of dyslexia. You’ll leave with a clear view of what’s changing—and why it matters—along with actionable steps to support students through evidence-based, structured literacy instruction and informed advocacy. This edWebinar will be of interest to K-12 teachers, school leaders, district leaders, and special education teachers.
