District leaders often think being above average is good enough, so don't tell us what to do. This raises the question about what our numerical goals should be. Here's my stab at an answer: the74million.org/article/whats-…
Next round of structured vs balanced literacy: Sharp divisions surface at hearing on how CA's new teachers should be taught reading instruction #CTC @DDCalifornia @FamsInSchools @careads @CalTog @WeAreTeachers; my latest edsource.org/2024/sharp-div…
This is great news for the people of Alabama!

This is tragic. If an earthquake hit these communities, policymakers would take instant action. But to patch a crack in reading instruction, they shrug with indifference.

Admirable candor from Tim Daly here. Any post-mortem should also take into account the problems created by layering on too much reform at once. Changing standards (Common Core) at the same time as implementing teacher eval changes was a huge mistake. educationdaly.us/p/how-did-teac…
"For God's sake, this is about reading." @MassGovernor in her strongest public remarks about literacy yet in an interview with @kelleratlarge Watch: cbsnews.com/boston/news/ma…
COMMENTARY: #ELL expert Claude Goldenberg sharply disagrees w/opponents of reading instruction reform #AB2222, urges passage @Decoding_Dyslexia_CA @edvoiceca @familiesinschools @asmblancarubioa @CalTog edsource.org/2024/english-l…
OPINION: #AB2222 opponents should seek to improve the legislation rather than leave students with outdated reading instruction. #caleg #capol #caedu #literacy #ScienceOfReading edsource.org/2024/english-l…
“AB 2222’s introduction is an important step forward on the road to universal literacy in California. We must get it on the right track and take it across the finish line.” – ELL expert Claude Goldenberg @careads @DDCalifornia edsource.org/2024/english-l…

Q&A with Alice Randall: When did you have the idea to re-record your songs? Pre-order your copy of 'My Black Country: The Songs of Alice Randall: orcd.co/myblackcountry
Every school leader should hear what @GovWesMoore has to say about trust in our institutions. Families need to know schools are invested in their kids, can solve problems and are focused on success. pbs.org/newshour/show/…
A tale of two states here. Are CA policymakers open-minded enough to learn from Mississippi's good ideas? edsource.org/2024/californi…
If you look at Mississippi & say they hold kids back and that won't fly in CA, you're missing the point. MS has created incentives & massive amounts of support for struggling readers. How can CA do the same? edsource.org/2024/californi…
And in celebration of #BlackHistoryMonth, we welcomed @MsAliceRandall to the Academy’s Nashville headquarters. She has become one of the most significant voices in the dissemination of Black Country Music history. Alice’s visit also served as a full-circle moment as she wrote…
It's ironic a professor at a university where students learn none of the elements of evidence-based reading instruction argues we should reject AB2222 and "prepare our teachers better." Really @abriceno??? latimes.com/opinion/story/…

@alfiekohn Important to understand that deskilling actors is at the heart of Shakespeare. Deskilling musicians is at the heart of Bach. Both wrote scripts, just like Engelmann.
@alfiekohn That is a spectacular distortion. To be an effective DI teacher takes incredible skill.
Direct or explicit instruction seems to be widely misunderstood. It's often characterised as boring lectures with little interaction and not catering to the needs of all students. Nothing could be further from the truth. A short thread 🧵⬇️

I’m all for new tent encampments, but before you build them you should need to engage with the stakeholders in a series of community meetings, have some design review, and ensure that the tents align with the existing character of the community.
@jandrewclark @EdFuller_PSU @douglasharris99 @DuellSays @yes_everykid_f Productive dialogue requires us to hold multiple truths at the same time. There are legitimate concerns about whether students/families have adequate protections in the context of ESAs. It is also abundantly clear that non discrimination clauses are grossly inadequate.
In the debate over vouchers, I worry SWD are once again being used as political pawns to serve broader, ideological agendas. We’ve seen this before: opponents of charter schools routinely criticize the sector’s record w/SWD while ignoring blatantly discriminator behavior in TPS

Everyone says this… and relationships do matter. Tremendously. Ask me in a few decades, but I think I will also care whether I left the world better than I found it.

@kitty_pryde9 I’m aware Fordham is generally conservative. Facts are not. Reality has no ideology. Either the study is methodologically sound, or it’s not. That’s the only basis for criticizing it. Rejecting empirical work on ideological grounds is anti-science.
@kitty_pryde9 This author is not at all a conservative ideologue. Look him up on Google Scholar. Anyway, science has built-in safeguards that make ideology irrelevant. Maybe this is the main thing people don’t understand—biased people can produce trustworthy research with good methodology.
The reactions to this post misunderstand what failed econ assumptions imply for govt’s role. The arg isn’t abt whether private orgs should/shouldn’t run schools w/public $. Its abt identifying challenges that if unaddressed can undermine our shared interest in children’s future

The easy way out for the Court is to just say that whatever the limit is are of immunity for official acts, under the facts alleged these are not official acts and it would not apply here. Leave the sweeping constitutional question for another day, and limit to the facts here.

@DavidWakelyn @mattyglesias Of course. I think the piece grapples with the need to understand root causes to get to solutions. But it’s perfectly fair to say that media and social media are frequently caught up in admiring the problem (or debating root causes to support their priors).
