"There is no magical, best way to teach reading and readers. The effective teaching of reading relies upon expert teachers making in-the-moment decisions to meet the needs of their students. "
Thanks, @trustingreaders!

Anyone else seeing a trend of dyslexia associations suggesting that accommodations on testing are somehow getting in the way of measuring what kids can really do? The Ontario IDA, for example, suggests that we only have good reading scores because of accommodations,

Righting Historic Injustice: "The toppling and erasure of Egerton Ryerson is a glaring injustice that leaves a gaping hole in the narrative arc of Ontario’s, and Canada’s, educational foundations." New from @MLInstitute #cdnhist #ONpoli #CIHE #CHEA macdonaldlaurier.ca/historic…
I haven’t written much in a long time. Here’s my take on the study that found astonishing effect sizes for UFLI.
It’s not a criticism of UFLI, but a critique of the research paper. I think research in education owes something to teachers.

NEW: My piece for the Observer on how I was so deep into my investigation into Cambridge Analytica that I failed to realise that Hannah - my ex's daughter - was facing a human version of it: a stalker who was harvesting her data and weaponising it against her.

Elbows up! But, as a historian, I need to point out that the new "I Am Canadian" video getting a lot of buzz this week quickly glosses over Canada's own history of aggressive colonialism - the kind of antagonism the video challenges - and we should talk about it 🧵
Benjamin Doxtdator retweeted
So, the "I Am Canadian" video's pointing to this conflict as an "imperfection" (an understatement!) serves to occlude Canada's permanent history as a colonial aggressor: canadiandimension.com/articl…

A question @haemesmer : on a podcast, I heard you talk about orthographic mapping as if having a word read to you would be more like memorizing and sounding it out would be orthographic mapping. Is the difference that sharp (assuming child has alphabetic principle)?
