I'm so proud of this work with colleagues from the World Bank showing why we need to align global literacy interventions with the science of reading #SoR #phonics. Link to the blog below; original #OA article here nature.com/articles/s4156…
📚Virtually all children can learn to read if given adequate instruction & the opportunity to practice. But data confirm a huge failure of school systems worldwide. ℹ️ More insights by @MichaelCra1814 & @Kathy_Rastle: wrld.bg/FCeW50U8noO #EndLearningPoverty #InvestInPeople
Just published meta-analysis (open access): Morphology instruction is effective for improving reading and spelling outcomes, and spelling effects can transfer to untrained words – but we still need to learn more about why it works and how best to teach it doi.org/10.1007/s10648…
