Summary "This latest volume in the Extraordinary Brain series represents a joint effort between researchers and practitioners to shape the future of early reading intervention by taking stock of the present and making recommendations for the future"-- Provided by publisher.
"The book's main agenda is to promote "research to practice to research," a conversational feedback loop in which researchers and practitioners work collaboratively to address the field's most pressing issues. In short, research leading to changes in practice is also informed by implementation efforts, including successes and challenges, which in turn shape future research inquiries. The first two chapters explain the "research to practice to research" dynamic and provide an overview of past reading intervention research, as well as present and future questions and needs. The second section is more technical and covers key science areas: behavior, neurobiology, and genetics. The third section presents research on reading and writing intervention, covering an array of sub topics and sub populations, including English Language Learners, dialect variation in African American children, translating and applying research to the classroom, and other topics. Integrative summaries in sections 2 and 3 synthesize section content and offer suggestions and recommendations for future research. The concluding section, "Looking to the Future" details specific considerations for the field as it progresses and develops"-- Provided by publisher.
