i grew up in the early 2000s and was just taught phonics, like you're supposed to, so this approach is shocking me.
When I asked him what he makes of the cognitive science research, he told me he thinks scientists focus too much on word recognition. He still doesn't believe accurate word recognition is necessary for reading comprehension. "Word recognition is a preoccupation," he said. "I don't teach word recognition. I teach people to make sense of language. And learning the words is incidental to that." He brought up the example of a child who comes to the word "horse" and says "pony" instead. His argument is that a child will still understand the meaning of the story because horse and pony are the same concept. I pressed him on this. First of all, a pony isn't the same thing as a horse. Second, don't you want to make sure that when a child is learning to read, he understands that /p/ /o/ /n/ /y/ says "pony"? And different letters say "horse"? He dismissed my question. "The purpose is not to learn words," he said. "The purpose is to make sense." Cognitive scientists don't dispute that the purpose of reading is to make sense of the text. But the question is: How can you understand what you are reading if you can't accurately read the words? And if quick and accurate word recognition is the hallmark of being a skilled reader, how does a little kid get there? Goodman rejected the idea that you can make a distinction between skilled readers and unskilled readers; he doesn't like the value judgment that implies. He said dyslexia does not exist — despite lots of evidence that it does.52 And he said the three-cueing theory is based on years of observational research. In his view, three cueing is perfectly valid, drawn from a different kind of evidence than what scientists collect in their labs. "My science is different," Goodman said.

How a flawed idea is teaching millions of kids to be poor readers
For decades, schools have taught children the strategies of struggling readers, using a theory about reading that cognitive scientists have repeatedly debunked. And many teachers and parents don't kno...

like in some ways it just feels like a vehicle for authors to get to write stories about strong female leads while latching onto a trend to make it more palatable to their publishers? but also yeah i absolutely do get sick of the generic european fantasy setting with VN ui element jokes lmao.

tbh while the word villainess kind of gives me a kneejerk negative reaction I'm also kind of happy that manga and LNs targeting women are even popular enough to be considered viable to make lmao.

the pinging does not need to be any more detailed than a guy saying "there's a thing here" while a HUD icon flashes on screen. that's all we need.
