    I've been listening to Science of Reading and actually, NOBODY READS THE WHOLE WORD. Strong readers are actually sounding out each letter but their brain works so fast due to being phonetically aware that it appears they're reading the whole word. STICK TO PHONICS. I'm a really strong reader. So strong that I pick up reading and writing quick when I'm learning a foreign language. I see and hear the letters in my head, but it's at speed lightning. I also taught a tonal foreign language and phonics is key. In the past they were taught sight words and therefore could not read. They were basically just memorizing words. But with phonics they were able to read new word they hadn't seen. Plus, these students were learning a new language in which they had to know the sounds and tones. Therefore, phonics was the way to go. If sight words were so great than we wouldn't have this illiterate crisis that has been going on for the past 10-15 years.

    I have a question. Why is it some students need to study in order to improve to do well in a classroom but there are cases where other students do not need to study and are able to get full marks or close without studying? Also the students doing well without studying usually will have another hobby that consumes them full time like sports or gaming. So I find it difficult to believe they would be consciously thinking about classroom work. This may change once they reach higher levels of education but still remains a visible phenonomen in the classroom. Thanks for the content you put out.

    This is another example of a test created to promote a predetermined point of view. I work in a private school that specialises in helping midle school kids who have strugled in public school. Because of our location we draw from two school districts. Both ditricts use whole Word but one uses phonics first and whole word as an advanced technique. Teaching kids to read using whole word can be like teaching them to drink by setting them infront of an open fire hidrent. A lot of the students from the district that does not use phonetics cant read at all. This is born out by my personal experience of helping their kids and by the test scores they receive.

    Remember - the human brain does not differentiate between what we do and what we think - it treats both as equal and valid forms of 'practice' and 'learning'. Someone like Terence Tao has what's called 'the rage to master' - basically, he is THINKING about his field constantly - and the brain treats this as constant and continual practice. A reporter once asked Carl Magnusen (best chess player ever) how often he 'thinks' about chess - he answered 'I'm thinking about it right now; only about 20% of my brain is here with you, 80% is working on chess right now.' Same speed - just pushing the machine harder - we just don't see all the practice going on inside.

    @@JaredCooney Good answer. What would this thinking look like for most students typically doing well in a classroom? Would this be an unconscious repition of thought in the background of a students mind or would a student be actively thinking about it? I imagine it would be unconscious typically as activities happen right after dismissing of class room. What are your thoughts?

    Always look forward to a new post - great reminder of the effect of the bias of the opening premise. I can see how this plays out in many a faculty meeting and how if we do not question our opening premise we may not have the most productive discussion. Question - how long will it take for the effects of lockdown to be negated, especially here in Melbourne (Australia) where they were particularly long?

    Hey Jarrod, thanks for this video. Was basically exactly what i was looking for and needed. Im an aspiring scientist and im in my third year of psych upon which i have to complete an assignment on behaviour. I was wanting to do social media/phone use, i specified it down to the current topic (within schools), and youve shown me it can work. I was told by peers that its not feasible for the very reasons you laid out within the papers and in essence they were having the precise mindset of a collector!Essentially saying that its too broad and theres too much bad AND good. Ill take that on board for my future writings and even assignments where i can. Cheers

    I have a some curiosities. The first is about the starting point of student learning prior to the initial instruction (ground zero so to speak) and prior knowledge. How did they take this into account? What about faulty schema where a student's understanding (for want of a better phrase) contains a conceptual misunderstanding? What impact might that have? I'm also interested in their other premise, which is around the statement '... and given the learner invests effort in sufficient learning opportunities'. Where does motivation, confidence, attention and length of the learning opportunity fit in? Where does these conclusions fit with ideas about spacing and interleaving? I'm also interested to know if they looked at students in different grades and at different ages? Is the rate of learning the same for a 5 year old as a 16 year old? How doe sit relate to ideas such as the use of standard celeration charts? Is it possible those charts could offer similar indications? And what about mastery being 80% accuracy? What if you looked for higher levels of accuracy? Take for a pianist memorizing a piece of music for performance. 80% accuracy is no accuracy at all. If mastery was defined as 95% accuracy would the results be similar?

    All wonderful questions - essentially, what you're getting at is the concept of 'moderators' - how do different things influence the ability or willingness of people to go through the learning process. As you can guess, all the moderators you've mentioned have huge impacts on learning: this research was simply trying to get to the question of whether or not, all things being equal, learning RATES would be constant or different. This is what makes the Science of Learning so fun: there is no way to address the entirety of learning in a single study (or even a single field!), so we must become detectives and always be linking different papers and findings together. So you're spot on with your thinking - now we can dig into more work to address those thoughts!

  • @JaredCooney
    @JaredCooney3 ай бұрын

    Interesting. Two responses - first, I'd urge you to watch the nature/nurture series I published a couple months back. Second - even if the starting point was 100% genetic (whatever that might mean), it would be irrelevant. If learning rate is the same, than even a person starting at 0% could reach 100% - they would simply require several more practice sessions on average than someone who started 'genetically' higher. With identical rates, starting points will differ depending upon many factors, but ending points differ only according to practice.

    One note about the final conclusion and call for return to basics. I recommend caution with a call for a return to basics. This gets seized by hard right conservatives as a return to very teacher centered didactic call and response pedagogy dominated by simple rote learned instruction. I’d hope the call might be to basics in term of analog, but keep moving forward on the encouragement of inquiry, student centered learning where students are at the center of action in the classroom and not a return to students passively listening to a teacher and sending memorized information back and then moving on without taking the next step of deeper application and use of that information.

    I'm curious about students with learning differences, specifically processing disorders or ADHD. Would this research be able to be generalized to them as well as a lot of the time IEP's recommend multimedia (audio and visual) work to be integrated in order to keep attention or help with processing- would that be a dated idea compared to this reproach or just too different?

    Good question: so far as we can tell, ADHD and ASD do not change this. Auditory and visual processing disorders certainly change this (they require captioms or, conversly, pure audio) - but the other primary LDs do not appear to change the picture.

    I always have an issue with token economy because it tends to recognise poor behaviours over positive. A quiet student / employee who always does the right thing is never recognised, whereas the disruptive student / employee who does not contribute receives reward when they start to behave in a more helpful way. This has the opposite effect on the quiet student / employee and they will then start to feel undervalued and overlooked. As though nothing they do is ever good enough and can certainly lead to burn out.

It is not quite the same thing but I found it very interesting.. now i know the reason why.

    I have worked in many schools that have 1:1 laptop policies. Bring your own device out of the blue is an absolute disaster.. they need to be introduced carefully at a young age, preferably a student will get their first device in school and it will be part of the curriculum to show them how to use it. The best school I worked in for this did this and had a digital literacies coordinator who worked across both the primary and secondary section. The school had the least problems with inappropriate device use than any other school I have worked in.. it wasn't perfect but it was better than the alternatives.

    Good question. When listening and reading are not fluent, then bringing the two together (speech and text) appears to be very useful. So, in your case, I imagine the two would support one another (just like I need subtitles when watching BBC shows, as I can;t quite follow the thick accents). However, once your students develop fluency in reading and listening, that's when we'd expect a hit.
