Check out this piece in @newyorker.com “#Dyslexia and the #Reading Wars,” by David Owen.
I had the pleasure of meeting David this summer at the GaabLab and chatting with him about dyslexia, the brain, and the critical importance of early identification. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Dyslexia and the Reading Wars
Proven methods for teaching the readers who struggle most have been known for decades. Why do we often fail to use them?

Steubenville became a model of reading success, but a new law in Ohio put it at risk. We look at the "science of reading" lists, why Steubenville's program isn't getting on many lists, and the surprising power of one curriculum review group.

New episode of Sold a Story today: soldastory.org
Nancy and Bob were betting that if you put a bunch of effective educational practices together, the result would be a successful school. A school that would make a difference for kids. But Bob and Nancy didn’t know if their program would work. It was kind of like they were making a soup. They knew the ingredients were good. But what about the soup? Would the soup taste good? Would the recipe actually work?

Success for All is the program at the heart of Steubenville's remarkable reading results. It's been around for decades, and numerous studies have shown it's effective. We trace the history of the program and why it's never really caught on.

Episode 12 of Sold a Story: The Evidence
soldastory.org
"Consider an old story about a little town that decided to build a gorgeous playground on some land that it had. The problem, however, was that this beautiful land was at the edge of a cliff. And it occurred to the town fathers that there was a danger that children might fall off the cliff. So the local playground board had huge debates. Should we build a fence at the top of the cliff? Or should we put an ambulance at the bottom?" -Bob Slavin
