The most effective reading instructional practices aren't always the ones that gain traction.It's the ones with the most successful marketing campaigns. The best marketer wins; but this certainly isn't a win for the students who go without effective instruction or the school staff struggling to support them. That's why I was so excited to talk with Dr. Pamela Snow about the growing body of research relating to literacy and its impact on life outcomes; as well as how we can improve the discourse surrounding effective instruction and improve instructional practices.Pamela Snow is a Professor of Cognitive Psychology in the School of Education at the Bendigo campus of La Trobe University, Australia. She is also Co-Director of the Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) Lab. Pamela is a registered psychologist, having qualified originally in speech-language pathology and has taught a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate education and health professionals. Her research has been funded by nationally competitive schemes such as the ARC Discovery Program, ARC Linkage Program, and the Criminology Research Council, and concerns the role of language and literacy skills as academic and mental health protective factors in childhood and adolescence. She has conducted research on the profiles and needs of high-risk groups such as youth offenders, children and adolescents in the state care system and flexible education systems, as well as research advancing evidence in the language-to-literacy transition in the early years of school. In 2020, Pamela established, with her colleague, Professor Tanya Serry, The Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) Lab in the School of Education at La Trobe University. Pamela's research has been published in a wide range of international journals and she was a member of the 2017 National Year 1 Literacy and Numeracy Panel, convened by the Hon. Simon Birmingham, Federal Education Minister. She is a Life Member of Speech Pathology Australia and a past Victorian State Chair of the Australian Psychological Society. Pamela has over 170 publications, comprising refereed papers, books and book chapters, monographs and research reports. In addition to these academic outputs, Pamela writes a popular blog for teachers, parents, and clinicians: The Snow Report - https://pamelasnow.blogspot.com/ and is a founding Associate Editor of The Reading League Journal. In this interview, we discuss:✅The impact of social media on the dissemination of research in education.✅Can the discussion of reading research become an ongoing feedback loop between people teaching reading and those conducting research?✅Comprehension and application are the end goals when it comes to the goal of education. But how do we define what “comprehension” is and how we work on it? ✅Play-based learning vs early reading instruction: Why they aren't in opposition.✅Using explicit instruction to build skills needed for problem-solving and successful project-based learning.✅Whose job is it to work on reading? How much is the responsibility of the schools, and what is the parent's job?You can connect with Dr. Snow on X (formerly Twitter) @pamelasnow2 (https://twitter.com/PamelaSnow2) or on her blog at: http://pamelasnow.blogspot.com/We mentioned the following articles on her blog in this episode including:Balanced Literacy Bingo (Link here: http://pamelasnow.blogspot.com/2022/11/balanced-literacy-bingo.html)School leaders and reading instruction: Time to demand LESS rather than more autonomy (Link here: http://pamelasnow.blogspot.com/2023/10/school-leaders-and-science-of-reading.html)You can also learn more about her work on her La Trobe University page at: https://scholars.latrobe.edu.au/pcsnowYou can learn more about the Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) lab at: https://www.latrobe.edu.au/school-education/about/spotlightThe number of experts and resources were mentioned in this episode, including:Dr. Anita Archer: https://explicitinstruction.org/Dr. David C.

The Liberals have formally decided to oppose the Voice. Peter Dutton has declared he will campaign against it, a high risk strategy when polls are showing a majority of Australians currently support a “yes” vote. Noel Pearson was scathing of the Liberal Party, calling the decision not to support the Voice “a Judas betrayal of our country”. Moderate Liberal MP Bridget Archer will campaign for the “yes” case. In this podcast, Michelle Grattan and Senator Simon Birmingham, leader of the opposition in the senate, and one of the few remaining moderates in the party, discuss the Voice, the Aston byelection defeat and “where to now?” for the Liberal Party.

Base wages rose by an average of 0.7 per cent over the March quarter or just short of 2.5 per cent over the past year but you'd be forgiven if you missed it. Why? Wages still trail the more than 5 per cent jump in the cost of living over the same period, cementing the place of wages and cost of living in debate over the final days of the campaign. Guest: Simon Birmingham, Finance Minister

With intelligent and thought-provoking analysis, RN Drive goes behind the headlines to give you original insight into the world you live in. Keep up to date with federal politics, current affairs, arts, culture and the stories that are making Australia talk.

Finance Minister Simon Birmingham says a re-elected Coalition Government will deliver the strong economic conditions to enable the creation of a net 400,000 small businesses. But he says that the popular instant asset write-off, which has driven a splurge on equipment and machinery, is unlikely to continue beyond next year.

The Prime Minister and the Opposition Leader have gone head to head in the first leaders' debate of the election campaign. The Solomon Islands China security deal shaped up as one of the major talking points.

The government's figured out how it wants to spend your money. Cheaper petrol! Some free money (sort of)! Trees for The Queen! And a bunch of other things. We look at what's in the federal budget for you - but also what's missing *cough, climate change, cough*. Meanwhile, northern NSW has copped a drenching again, with major flooding in Lismore, Byron Bay and the surrounding areas. Flood-weary residents, who were evacuated just weeks ago, are at breaking point. Plus, keen to holiday in space? Pack your bags, there's plans for a space hotel to open up in a few years.

Paul is joined by Andrew Bolt, Simon Birmingham, Michael Kroger, Rita Panahi, Joe Hildebrand, Stephen Conroy, Cory Bernardi and many more to recap the federal budget.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Simon Birmingham, Federal Finance Minister

Ben Davison looks at how Peter Malinauskas won the South Australian for Labor focussing on health, ambulance waiting times, public ownership of assets and jobs while the Marshall Liberals, blinded by infighting and scandal, set the wrong, wasteful priorities. Morrison minister, Simon Birmingham, appeared on Insiders this morning to claim the people of South Australia had been "tricked" and that there were no lessons for the Morrison government.  The Morrison government will be handing out some form of one off payments in the budget but doing nothing to address the systemic issues of insecure work, declining wages or rising living costs. Greg Sheridan offered the insight that under Morrison and Dutton we "couldn't stop an invasion of penguins" given the hollowing out of our defence capability, despite huge amounts being given out to contractors and offshore suppliers. Morrison's attempt to pork barrel the flood relief has backfired with one NSW coalition upper house MP resigning in protest and another claiming it would be "hard to vote for him" And Morrison minister, Stuart Robert, has called public sector teachers duds as new research shows they in fact working 60 hours a week, 1 in 3 is thinking of leaving teaching and the independant and catholic school teachers are now looking at taking industrial action too. A sharp 20 minutes to wrap up your weekend.
