Parents, educators, reading researchers, and policy makers all agree that children must learn to read to participate fully in a modern society. They agree, moreover, that much of this learning will take place in school. Beyond this, agreement breaks down. There have been many debates about how children should learn to read; those between proponents of phonics instruction and proponents of whole-language instruction have sometimes been so heated that they have been called the “reading wars.” What can psychological science tell us about the issues? This is the question that Castles, Rastle, and Nation (2018) set out to answer in their article. They provide a wide-ranging review of how reading develops, from beginners to experts, and consider the implications of the research for how reading should be taught.

研究告诉我们有关阅读指导的内容

父母，教育者，阅读研究人员和政策制定者都同意，孩子必须学会阅读才能充分参与现代社会。此外，他们同意，大部分学习将在学校进行。除此之外，协议破裂。关于儿童应该如何学习阅读的争论很多。语音教学的拥护者与全语言教学的拥护者之间有时会如此激烈，以至于被称为“阅读战争”。心理科学可以告诉我们关于这些问题的什么？这是Castles，Rastle和Nation（2018）在他们的文章中回答的问题。从初学者到专家，它们对阅读的发展方式进行了广泛的回顾，并考虑了研究对阅读教学的意义。
