Dr. George Georgiou: "Reading Recovery is the biggest failure over the last 50 years" cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
The title of my book is "Not Stupid, Not Lazy: Understanding Dyslexia and Other Learning Disabilities" and it is published by the International Dyslexia Association. The publication date is 2016.
Absolutely. The studies of intervention show that appropriate intervention is equally effective for "dyslexics" and "poor readers."

Yes dyslexia is defined as poor word reading (accuracy and/or fluency)
Yes dyslexia is defined as poor word reading (accuracy and/or fluency)
It is not clear why they conclude poor readers are on a continuum and dyslexia represents a distinct distribution. How did they define these groups. Most of my colleagues would define dyslexia as poor reading so it is not clear what the difference is.
I agree that we should use the term dyslexia and it should refer to reading difficulties at the word level. The way listening "comprehension" is measured is that it is a memory task. One may comprehend but not remember.

yes. The research shows that there are no differences in reading skills, brain imagining, etc. between dyslexics (IQ reading discrepant) and poor readers.

Not clear why you conclude that there is a difference between dyslexics and "poor readers" - the latter with no IQ- reading discrepancy

"It may be hard to believe given news media reports & the numerous books that now purport to translate neuroscience into pedagogy, but there are not any new and effective instructional methods, approaches, techniques, or materials that have been developed based on “brain science.
What does brain science have to say about teaching reading? Does it matter? shanahanonliteracy.com/blog/what-does…
The same arguments against using discrepancy largely apply to using IQ cut scores (90;85;80) as 1 criterion for dyslexia or LDs. Stanovich & Siegel '94 ref mentioned; see mean IQ scores of "non-discrepant" RD groups (3). IQ cut scores also keep dyslexia as a privileged diagnosis.

Young high-academically performing boy visiting @LiteracyAcres today informed his grandfather and me that his classroom is on week 5 reading a book with 107 pages. And, they listen to the book read on tape and follow along. This is not the education kids deserve in this country.
An illusion of learning: Independent reading. Many elementary students engage in 20+ minutes of independent reading in class every day. They select a book from the classroom library, get comfy somewhere and “read”…except for the 70% of kids in the class who can’t read. 🤔
