Study casts skeptical eye on reading report
The National Reading Panel's 2000 report "Teaching Children to Read" put too
much emphasis on phonics instruction and ignored other approaches that are
beneficial to students, a study published in the Education Policy Analysis
Archives says. The NRP's report was the basis of the Bush administration's
Reading First initiative.  Education Week (free registration) (5/21)

The original study "Teaching Children to Read: The Fragile Link Between
Science and Federal Education Policy," can be found at the Education Policy
Analysis Archives. Requires Adobe's Acrobat Reader.)
