The Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) was created to support teachers in implementing college and career readiness standards in order to teach literacy skills throughout the content areas. Teachers work collaboratively with coaches to further develop their expertise and design standards-driven, literacy-rich writing assignments within their existing curriculum across all content areas. This annual report reflects the second year of implementation in 18 Cohort 1 schools, which began implementation in the 2016-2017, and the first year of implementation for 35 Cohort 2 schools, which commenced at the beginning of 2017-2018. Teacher, teacher leader, and administrator participants reported positive attitudes toward LDC. All measures of satisfaction or improvement were rated positively by more than half of the respondents. Participants across all groups perceived a positive impact on student outcomes. Approximately three-quarters of teachers agreed that LDC helped improve students'reading skills, literacy-performance, writing, and content knowledge. Analysis of student outcomes indicated that there were positive impacts of LDC on student learning, but the differences were not statistically significant.
