@tashclarke73 Wow just read the project!! Love the idea one thing I want to encourage government orgs to do is just provide domains and hosting to residence. Build in the digital infrastructure and see what happens.

@davidbraze was Just citing much of your NIH vocabulary work when I was pointing out saying "science of reading" while basing definition of reading on an SVR model is by defintion an oxymoron.

@SaraJPeden Grab of relevant readings I could quickly curate together: https://jgregorymcverry.com/music/index.php/s/Eq8ZB5rUHPEeYKN Basic gist: even Tunmer uses a more complicated model, the biggest critque of SVR is lack of vocab and prior knowledge, then lack of distal mediators

Just calling it "Science of Reading" is proof enough... Who would be against science? Just those ignorant brainwashed teachers, that's who... Yet scratch surface and you find it is a very limited survey (or disproven like SVR) view of science

Does seem straneg to use the meme "science of reading" and then base it on a theoretical model of SVR to which there is zero to little scientific evidence to support. It is all NRP, which wasn't an efficacy study at all, and left out huge swaths of research
