Stop referring to some literacy experts as scientists and others simply as educators
Your reporting on reading is extraordinarily biased. You need to read the latest PISA scores and discuss what occurs beyond this basic level of reading, which, while important, is not the whole story. You ignore the fact that we have been inundated with skill-based reading interventions for almost two decades. Why don’t you do a podcast on critical literacy in order to offer more of the story? If you are interested in this topic, there is scientific research on the need for critical responses to texts and the ability to create new texts (write ). Your tone is dismissive and it’s so frustrating to hear this portrayal of the terrain of literacy research. It’s not either/or. I’ve taught 20 years in grades 4-12, and then 5 years in higher education.
