Introducing SERP Stories: Our New Podcast Is Live!

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of SERP Stories, a new podcast from the SERP Institute that brings you inside the work of research-practice partnerships shaping real change in education.


Our first season highlights the development of STARI (the Strategic Adolescent Reading Intervention) and the powerful lessons we’ve learned about adolescent literacy, student engagement, and what it takes to move research into action.


In each episode, host Dr. Kala Jones lifts the curtain on a different kind of research—one that begins in classrooms, centers educators, and stays grounded in practice. You’ll hear from researchers, teachers, and district leaders as they navigate the real-world challenges of improving educational outcomes for students.
