Compelling #ConversationHour with Richelle Hunt ABC Melbourne talking with podcaster Emily Hanford and La Trobe University’s Pamela Snow and Tanya Serry on science of reading. Looking forward to tomorrow’s Science of Teaching & Learning Australia Forum - “The What, the Why, the How of Evidence-based Reading Instruction”.

“Equity in education begins with good phonics instruction in the early grades” Thank you for a fantastic presentation Emily Hanford Science of Teaching & Learning Australia


Pamela Snow emphasising that when it comes to policy on reading instruction, we need to play the balance of probabilities and make pragmatic decisions using the best available research at the time. Schools don't have the luxury of waiting 10 years for more research.


“It’s too soon for us to stop talking about balanced literacy…imagine if our hospitals adopted balanced infection control.” The phenomenal Pamela Snow Science of Teaching & Learning Australia


So many Victorian educators giving up their Saturday to hear about the “oxygen of evidence and accountability” from Pamela Snow Science of Teaching & Learning Australia


The amazing Tanya Anne Serry PhD, reminding us that no-one should be happy with approx 30% of students failing to read proficiently. According to Dr. Kerry Hepenstall, cognitive science suggests we should be aiming for 95% proficiency. readingdoctor.com.au/how-should-we-… Science of Teaching & Learning Australia


Tanya Anne Serry PhD calls for the de-implementation of non-evidence based resources in school. Ben Carroll, it would be fabulous to see a buy-back scheme where schools are rewarded for handing back assessment kits that don’t align with best practice. Science of Teaching & Learning Australia

Today’s Science of Teaching & Learning Australia & La Trobe University event in Melb on the What, the Why and the How of Effective Reading Instruction is a reminder of the importance of school leaders demanding LESS rather than more autonomy with respect to reading instruction in their schools: pamelasnow.blogspot.com/2023/10/school…
